James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-2154:
---------------------------------------
+1. [~tdsilva] - please commit this to master and 4.x branches. If we can perf
test this next, in parallel with improving the unit tests, that'd be good.
Please file the HBase bug to make the member variable you need protected (or
have an accessor for it) if you think that would improve things, [~rvaleti].

> Once a mapper in the MR index job succeeds, it should not need to be re-done
> in the event of the failure of one of the other mappers. The initial
> population of an index is based on a snapshot in time, so new rows getting
> *after* the index build has started and/or failed do not impact it.
> Also, there's a 1:1 correspondence between index rows and table rows, so
> there's really no need to dedup. However, the index rows will have a
> different row key than the data table, so I'm not sure how the HFiles are
> split. Will they potentially overlap and is this an issue?
