I was thinking of doing that but I suspect that zookeeper keeps metadata of
tables also. Seems like region servers are fine for now without the master
and I don't want to make the problem worse by taking chances.

If I run 'hbase hbck' it complains about master is not running also.

I found the following two posts which indicate that I should remove the
zookeeper nodes. Can somebody confirm?
