I exported a snapshot to another cluster, same version of all software. =
A restore_snapshot on the target
system hung and eventually timed out, I think due to file ownership =
issues. I restored hbase ownership
to everything in /apps/hbase and tried the restore_snapshot again. It=92s =
still hanging, but in the master logs I=92m seeing:

   clone snapshot=3D{ ss=3Dfoo-9-25-14 table=3DFoo type=3DFLUSH } failed =
because A clone should not have regions to restore

However, I was able to do a clone_snapshot to a table with a different =
name. Does anyone know
what this means and how to get past it? (HBase 0.98)

Thanks
