Description

Reproduce this issue by following steps:
For reproduce it I add this code in DeleteTableHandler#handleTableOperation():

      LOG.debug("Deleting region " + region.getRegionNameAsString() +
        " from META and FS");
	  +if (true) {
	  +  throw new IOException("ERROR");
	  +}
      // Remove region from META
      MetaEditor.deleteRegion(this.server.getCatalogTracker(), region);
