             Summary: Parent-Child linking rows in System.Catalog break tenant 
view replication
                 Key: PHOENIX-4229
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-4229
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.11.0, 4.12.0
            Reporter: Geoffrey Jacoby


PHOENIX-2051 introduced new Parent-Child linking rows to System.Catalog that 
speed up view deletion. Unfortunately, this breaks assumptions in PHOENIX-3639, 
which gives a way to replicate tenant views from one cluster to another. (It 
assumes that all the metadata for a tenant view is owned by the tenant -- the 
linking rows are not.) 

PHOENIX-3639 was a workaround in the first place to the more fundamental design 
problem that Phoenix places the metadata for both table schemas -- which should 
never be replicated -- in the same table and column family as the metadata for 
tenant views, which should be replicated. 

Note that the linking rows also make it more difficult to ever split these two 
datasets apart, as proposed in PHOENIX-3520.
