title: Hbase Multiple Master issue
body: <p>I am evaluating HBase Multiple master utility as I require that functionality. I used a simple 4 machine hbase cluster with M1 as master. Now I started the Hmaster in M4 as well. I could see logs in M4 Master log as, This HMaster is waiting as already M1 is acting as HMaster. </p>
  
  <p>After this I stopped the Master in the M1 and after few seconds, the M4 master took over. But I am not seeing any region server communicating to this new master. The region server logs show, </p>

  <p>Also in the M4 Master log I am seeing, </p>

  <p>Seems the region servers are only communicating to the M1 Hmaster and not to the new one!! </p>
  
  <p>I am using Hbase - 0.90.0 version</p>
  
  <p>Any help regarding this is highly appreciated!!</p>
