Dave Latham commented on HBASE-8844: ------------------------------------ +1 > Document stop_replication danger > -------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-8844 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8844 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Components: documentation > Reporter: Patrick > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-8844.patch > > > The first two tutorials for enabling replication that google gives me [1], > [2] take very different tones with regard to stop_replication. The HBase docs > [1] make it sound fine to start and stop replication as desired. The Cloudera > docs [2] say it may cause data loss. > Which is true? If data loss is possible, are we talking about data loss in > the primary cluster, or data loss in the standby cluster (presumably would > require reinitializing the sync with a new CopyTable). > [1] > http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/replication/package-summary.html#requirements > [2] > http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera-content/cloudera-docs/CDH4/4.2.0/CDH4-Installation-Guide/cdh4ig_topic_20_11.html -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
