Thanks @Apache9 , I want to agree with you to have a HBCK option, but one concern I have and keep struggling about making this automated instead of HBCK options. If one HBase cluster has hundred of tables with thousand of regions, how would the operator recovery the cluster? does he/she (offline/online) repair the meta table by scanning the storage on each region ? (instead we can just load the meta without rebuilding it?) Tbh, I felt bad to bring this meta table issue because normal HBase cluster does not assume Zookeeper (and WAL) could be gone after the cluster starts and restarts. for this PR/JIRA, mainly, I'm questioning what a `partial meta` should be, any thoughts ? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
