Josh Elser commented on HBASE-17852: ------------------------------------ {quote} Looks like a new table is introduced. How you thought about achieving the same purpose with additional column family in backup table ? {quote} I had an offline talk with Vlad about this one. He explained that a table-level lock is grabbed which would introduce a deadlock scenario. The introduction of a separate table avoids this problem in that manner. > Add Fault tolerance to HBASE-14417 (Support bulk loaded files in incremental > backup) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-17852 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17852 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Vladimir Rodionov > Assignee: Vladimir Rodionov > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-17852-v1.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
