Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: docs
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Eric Newton
Assignee: Adam Fuchs
The users' manual should advise best practices for generating and importing
bulk files, as well as the effects of bulk imported files:
1. Recommended file sizes
1. Side effects of bypassing constraints
1. Proper use of range partitioners
1. Preemptive splitting of tables
1. How major compaction/garbage collection affects bulk files
1. Setting the timestamp
1. Invalid visibility fields makes accumulo fail in strange ways
1. Bulk import doesn't increase entry counts on the monitor page until the
files are compacted
