Liyin Tang commented on HBASE-5373: ----------------------------------- Sure. I am glad that Alex is working this jira right now and I will help on the code-review. > Table level lock to prevent the race of multiple table level operation > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5373 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5373 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Liyin Tang > Assignee: Liyin Tang > > A table level lock can guarantee that only one table operation would happen > at one time for each table. The master should require and release these table > locks correctly during the failover time. One proposal is to keep track of > the lock and its corresponding operation in the zookeeper. If there is a > master failover, the secondary should have a way to check whether these > operations are succeeded nor not before releasing the lock. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
