---------------------------------

             Summary: Provide a way in TableSnapshotInputFormat, not to restore 
the regions to a path for running MR every time, rather reuse a already 
restored path
                 Key: HBASE-11484
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11484
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: mapreduce
            Reporter: deepankar
            Priority: Minor


We are trying to back a Hive Table by the Map Reduce over snapshots  and we 
don't want to restore the snapshot to a restoreDir every time we want to 
execute a query. It would be nice if there is boolean in the function 
* TableSnapshotInputFormat.setInput * and exposed outside in the
* TableMapReduceUtil.initTableSnapshotMapperJob *, with this boolean
it will check whether the snapshot and the restore dir are in sync, rather than 
restoring again. 

Is this Idea looks Ok to you guys or you have any other suggestions, I will put 
up a patch for this if this idea is ok for guys
