Liu Junhong commented on HBASE-12712:
-------------------------------------
The value of forceMajor will be only setted to true when trigger major
compaction manually. In my case we need trigger major compaction by
CompactionChecker. The master branch can solve this case. Thank you, i'll close
this issue.

> Here is my case. After repeatedly minor compaction, the size of storefile is
> very large. Compaction with large storefile will waste much bandwidth, so i
> use the “hbase.hstore.compaction.max.size” to skip this case. But after use
> this config, i find that major compaction will be skipped forever when i read
> the source code and the deletes and muti-versions data my waste storage. So i
> had to modify the code.
> Now i'm try to submit my patch.But my patch is not perfect. I think there
> should be an other config to determine if the large size storefile should
> join major compaction in HColumnDescriptor.
