As the recovery is an asynchronous operation recoverLease call will return immediately and may end up with read failure as the recovery is in progress. This may lead to some regions to be in offline state only. One approach is to introduce a delay in between recovery and read. But, this may not be a fool proof way to address this. How do we handle this scenario? Please do correct me if my understanding went wrong. --Laxman
