Hernan Gelaf-Romer created HBASE-29239: ------------------------------------------
Summary: Subsequent runs of re-splitting HFiles can fail because we don't cleanup the MR directory Key: HBASE-29239 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-29239 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: backup&restore Reporter: Hernan Gelaf-Romer Recently, I've discovered that it's possible to break backups if the MapReduceHFileSplitterJob fail to run successfully. The MR job first populates the target directory, but fails at some other point. When re-tried, the MR fails because the target directory already exists. We should clean up the target bulkload directory if the HFileSplitter job fails for any reason to avoid this failure mode -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
