Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-14049: ---------------------------------------- After a HDFS level blip during snapshotting we typically see detritus missing .snapshotinfo, or having one that is corrupt, leading to InvalidProtocolBufferException upon read attempt. Today SnapshotHFileCleaner only warns and moves on: {noformat] 2015-07-02 16:29:49,490 ERROR [archivedHFileCleaner] snapshot.SnapshotHFileCleaner - Exception while checking if files were valid, keeping them just in case. ... {noformat} leading to a lot of log noise until the problem is manually addressed. > SnapshotHFileCleaner should optionally clean up after failed snapshots > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-14049 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14049 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.98.13 > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > > SnapshotHFileCleaner should optionally clean up after failed snapshots rather > than just complain. Add a configuration option that, if set to true > (defaulting to false), instructs SnapshotHFileCleaner to recursively remove > failed snapshot temporary directories. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
