System/site constraints and iterators should NOT affect the METADATA table
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ACCUMULO-324
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-324
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4.0
Reporter: John Vines
Fix For: 1.5.0
Currently any system and site wide constraints and iterators set will affect
the !METADATA table. While we want to provide this level of configuration to
make things easier for users, we also don't want to have this feature which is
essentially useless due to ill effects on this critical table. We should make
specific exceptions that any site/system-wide iterators, constraints, and other
scan/write-time affecting configurations do not affect the !METADATA site. If
we need an iterator/constraint running against the !METADATA table, it will
have to be configured for it specifically.
Do not fix until after ACCUMULO-323 has been resolved.
