Description

In hbase-daemon.sh autorestart option the znode used is "shutdown"

zshutdown=`$bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.HBaseConfTool zookeeper.znode.state`
        if [ "$zshutdown" == "null" ]; then zshutdown="shutdown"; fi
        zFullShutdown=$zparent/$zshutdown

the node shutdown is not available now and is changed to running.

Since this node is not available, script does not restart the node and it exists.

So autorestart scripts needs to be changed to make use of "running" znode.
