Yi Liang commented on HBASE-16234:
----------------------------------
Hi [~chenheng], i just check the following code in the AssignmentManager.java,
it seems that all the other place do not deal with the primary replica, all of
them skip the primary replica. So you are right, we can continue directly, I
will modify the code. Thanks for your help.
> Expect and handle nulls when assigning replicas

> not currently have any handling for such a possibility.
