Josh Elser commented on HBASE-17852:
------------------------------------
bq. I'm not messing with you, Appy. Check the push logs/comments on the other
JIRA issue.. I swear to you that I did not push this until after I heard back
from you. My guess is that this is due to me using git-am or cherry picking a
commit from a local branch.
My apologies, Appy. I am wrong. I apparently got impatient and pushed this
because there was silence from the Dec 6th mention and the Jan 12th re-ping. My
intent was not to squash your opinions, but to avoid being blocked if you were
not interested/busy as seemed might be the case.
If you have since changed your mind about the reduced patch hitting master, my
offer to revert stands. My apologies again for arguing with you while in the
wrong.

> Design approach rollback-via-snapshot implemented in this ticket:
> # Before backup create/delete/merge starts we take a snapshot of the backup
> meta-table (backup system table). This procedure is lightweight because meta
> table is small, usually should fit a single region.
> # When operation fails on a server side, we handle this failure by cleaning
> up partial data in backup destination, followed by restoring backup
> meta-table from a snapshot.
> # When operation fails on a client side (abnormal termination, for example),
> next time user will try create/merge/delete he(she) will see error message,
> that system is in inconsistent state and repair is required, he(she) will
> need to run backup repair tool.
> # To avoid multiple writers to the backup system table (backup client and
> BackupObserver's) we introduce small table ONLY to keep listing of bulk
> loaded files. All backup observers will work only with this new tables. The
> reason: in case of a failure during backup create/delete/merge/restore, when
> system performs automatic rollback, some data written by backup observers
> during failed operation may be lost. This is what we try to avoid.
> # Second table keeps only bulk load related references. We do not care about
> consistency of this table, because bulk load is idempotent operation and can
> be repeated after failure. Partially written data in second table does not
> affect on BackupHFileCleaner plugin, because this data (list of bulk loaded
> files) correspond to a files which have not been loaded yet successfully and,
> hence - are not visible to the system
