Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-18448: ---------------------------------------- RefreshHFilesEndpoint is added in server module as in latest patch. This is an EP impl. U will need to expose a client side util class (See AggregationClient) for the user/Admin to call. But whether this should be added in hbase-server module? I feel not required. Max we can add into hbase-examples module. Those are just examples of EP impls. We may not need to specify any InterfaceAudience level there. > Added support for refreshing HFiles through API and shell > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-18448 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18448 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.3.1 > Reporter: Ajay Jadhav > Assignee: Ajay Jadhav > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.4.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-18448.branch-1.001.patch, > HBASE-18448.branch-1.002.patch, HBASE-18448.branch-1.003.patch, > HBASE-18448.branch-1.004.patch > > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
