Summary: WAL Archives Cause Incremental Backup Failures Key: HBASE-29447 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-29447 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: backup&restore Reporter: Hernan Gelaf-Romer If a WAL file is rolled + archived during an incremental backup, we get a FNFE and the backup process will fail. When we try to run the WalPlayer to convert WAL files to HFiles, we run into the following error {code:java} 2025-07-06 11:39:22.573 [pool-115-thread-1] ERROR o.a.h.h.b.impl.TableBackupClient - Unexpected exception in incremental-backup: incremental copy backup_1751801939412File hdfs://venus-hb2-a-prod:8020/hbase/WALs/na1-real-weary-skink.iad02.hubinternal.net,60020,1751589560526/na1-real-weary-skink.iad02.hubinternal.net%2C60020%2C1751589560526.1751800206074 does not exist. java.io.FileNotFoundException: File hdfs://venus-hb2-a-prod:8020/hbase/WALs/na1-real-weary-skink.iad02.hubinternal.net,60020,1751589560526/na1-real-weary-skink.iad02.hubinternal.net%2C60020%2C1751589560526.1751800206074 does not exist.{code} In order to make this more resilient, we could make sure to check the archive directory for the missing WAL file if we run into this issue. We do something similar when handling bulkloads -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
