             Summary: Ensure Cleanup of Continuous Backup WALs After Last 
Backup is Force Deleted
                 Key: HBASE-29350
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-29350
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: backup&restore
            Reporter: Vinayak Hegde
            Assignee: Vinayak Hegde


When the last backup is deleted using the {{-fd}} (force delete) option, there 
are no remaining backups to recover from. In this state:
 * Continuous backup metadata in the system table becomes obsolete.

 * WAL files under the backup WAL directory are no longer needed.

 * The replication peer used for continuous WAL tracking serves no purpose.

Since the entire backup chain is gone, we can safely clean up all related 
metadata and WAL artifacts to free up storage and avoid stale state in the 
system.
