Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5604: -------------------------------------- I also think it is still important to be able to import log entries to a different table. So I'll allow providing two comma separated lists of table names. The 2nd one is optional, and if provided it will be used to derive the respective target tables. If the case of BulkExport only a single table name and no mapping will be allowed. Or maybe I should get rid of that option now...? > HLog replay tool that generates HFiles for use by LoadIncrementalHFiles. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-5604 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5604 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Attachments: 5604-v4.txt, HLog-5604-v3.txt > > > Just an idea I had. Might be useful for restore of a backup using the HLogs. > This could an M/R (with a mapper per HLog file). > The tool would get a timerange and a (set of) table(s). We'd pick the right > HLogs based on time before the M/R job is started and then have a mapper per > HLog file. > The mapper would then go through the HLog, filter all WALEdits that didn't > fit into the time range or are not any of the tables and then uses > HFileOutputFormat to generate HFiles. > Would need to indicate the splits we want, probably from a live table. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
