maghamravikiran commented on PHOENIX-1609:
------------------------------------------

Thanks [~jamestaylor] for the feedback.  Would it be ok if we call disableTable 
on the underlying HBase table . That way, the MR job will fail to copy HFiles 
as the index table is marked DISABLE.

> Often, we need to create new indexes on master tables way after the data 
> exists on the master tables.  It would be good to have a simple MR job given 
> by the phoenix code that users can call to have indexes in sync with the 
> master table. 
> Users can invoke the MR job using the following command 
> hadoop jar org.apache.phoenix.mapreduce.Index -st MASTER_TABLE -tt 
> INDEX_TABLE -columns a,b,c
> Is this ideal?
