Vinayak Hegde created HBASE-29350: ------------------------------------- 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
