ExpHbaseInterface::getRowOpen error HBASE_OPEN_ERROR when creating index

[Chris Sheedy]

In the daily build of Trafodion on 2015-01-16, the core-regress-seabase-cdh5.1 test timed out.
The very first test in http://logs.trafodion.org/daily/core-regress-seabase-cdh5.1/48193df/console.html did not complete:

+ ./tools/runallsb seabase
+ tee /home/jenkins/workspace/core-regress-seabase-cdh5.1/sql-regress-logs/Regress.log
+ grep --line-buffered -C1 -E '### PASS |### FAIL '
+ grep --line-buffered -v '^$'
+ sed --unbuffered . . .
Build timed out (after 200 minutes). Marking the build as failed.

Near the end of http://logs.trafodion.org/daily/core-regress-seabase-cdh5.1/48193df/sql-regress-logs/Regress.log the first bad output is:

>>create index t010t5idx1 on t010t5(c3) salt like table ;

Closing this one after confirming with Chris and Suresh that the problem does not occur. Reducing SQL's JAVA heap size also may have helped ensure that the RS does not go down and cause this 705 error.
