I'm curious about the expected behavior for when the source data contains deletes. It seems that those deletes will be merged into the destination, clobbering any non-deleted data in the destination. Clobbering (or at least, some sensible merge, based on timestamp) is probably expected behavior for non-deleted data from the source, but deleted data is tricky, because the user has no insight into the current state of deletes in the source. They can "cloneInto" in one instant and have deletes clobber their destination, and then do it again without any clobbering (because the source has since compacted). To prevent this behavior, it seems you'd need to either 1) force a compaction, or 2) add metadata to the value of the file entry instructing the tserver to ignore deleted data (delete markers and any data it is hiding) coming from that particular file, before merging with the other files, similar to how we re-write timestamps when reading data from bulk-imported files. This unexpected behavior can occur even if all other parts of the cloneInto feature were working perfectly. It gets even more complicated and unexpected when we begin considering that the user's view of the data is different than what the underlying data actually is in other ways, as the result of iterators. It may not be obvious that they are injecting the underlying data, and not their view of it, into another table. How do you propose to address that? With additional permissions to ensure not just everybody can perform this action? With a check to verify that the same iterators exist on the destination table that existed on the source table? - Christopher Tubbs On Dec. 22, 2014, 2:59 p.m., John Vines wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
