Release Note

The default value of hbase.client.retries.number was 35. It is now 10.
And for server side, the default hbase.client.serverside.retries.multiplier was 10. So the server side retries number was 35 * 10 = 350. It is now 3.

Description

This should be sub-task of HBASE-19148. As the retries number effect too many unit tests. So I open this issue to see the Hadoop QA result.

The default value of hbase.client.retries.number is 35. Plan to reduce this to 10.
And for server side, the default hbase.client.serverside.retries.multiplier is 10. So the server side retries number is 35 * 10 = 350. It is too big! Plan to reduce hbase.client.serverside.retries.multiplier to 3.
