stack commented on HBASE-18082: ------------------------------- It was assigned to no one. Seems like a usability problem that needs addressing. Does backup/restore lack resources? Will it not be completed? > Provide capability for backup / restore client to pace execution > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-18082 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18082 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ted Yu > Labels: backup > > Currently the backup / restore is kind of monolithic in that once backup / > restore fails, the retry would start from the beginning of the operation. > Backup / restore client can record the last successful substep of the current > operation (in backup table, e.g.) so that subsequent operation can resume > from this substep. > This would allow shorter execution time for the retry operation and give > better user experience. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
