Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-5801:
---------------------------------------

I don't think that is good enough -- if deleteTable failing, it is an indication that the repairs are not sufficient. 

In the original HBASE-5128, we had a 50% fail rate on some tests and tracking down the root of the flakyness lead to the offline call to fix master/rs state, and making the HRI comparator more specific.  

This issue feels similar and may be related to something like that...

> Recently, we encountered a case where some regions in a table have different HTableDescriptor settings serialized into HDFS their HRegionInfo .regioninfo file.  hbck expects all HTDs within a table to be the same and currently bails out in this situation.
> We need to either point out a proper set of actions for the user to execute or automatically convert the region to a common HTD (likely the most common on, or possibly the "first one".)
> Not sure if this requires reformatting data but may require closing and restarting a region.
> This issue is hbase 0.90.x specific -- 0.92+ keep all table info in a single .tableinfo file.
