> By default, restore operation runs with automatic off and overwrite off. This
> is not what user expect (point -in -time data restore).
> When automatic is off, only last backup image will be restored - the image
> user requested. With automatic on - the whole image dependency chain will be
> restored, starting with the most recent full backup image, followed by
> incremental images. This is should be default.
> When overwrite is off - we face issues similar HBASE-15862 ( Backup - delete
> data - restore from backup results in missing data). Overwrite is off by
> default.
> Definitely, we need to make, at least, both modes to be default ones, at
> least. The question do we need these exotic modes at all? What are use case
> for them?
> Please cast your vote, comments are welcome.
