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

             Summary: Remove store files api in SFT to only archive physical 
files and ignore virtual links
                 Key: HBASE-29458
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-29458
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Prathyusha


HBASE-27826 introduces tracking of Link/Reference files with StoreFileTracker 
interface and with that, we can have the FileBasedStoreFileTracker 
implementation to track Link/Reference files only using .filelist file itself 
and not create actual link/ref files (virtual links).

So Virtual links no longer need to be archived and that abstraction should be 
at SFT layer instead of HRegionFileSystem where the removeStoreFiles api 
exists, which does the hfile archival triggered from CompactedHFilesDischarger 
and as part of HStore open
