------------------------------------------------
Thanks for this info. So I think you will be periodically refreshing using this
refresh files.
Just asking, can the region server in replica have a periodic scheduler thread
per store to do this refresh rather than having it in the admin and using it
through shell? do you have some constraints in using that way?

> In the case where multiple HBase clusters are sharing a common rootDir, even
> after flushing the data from
> one cluster doesn't mean that other clusters (replicas) will automatically
> pick the new HFile. Through this patch,
> we are exposing the refresh HFiles API which when issued from a replica will
> update the in-memory file handle list
> with the newly added file.
> This allows replicas to be consistent with the data written through the
> primary cluster.
