Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-324: -------------------------------------------- System-wide configuration should be added/merged with the default namespace configuration, which won't apply to the system tables. > System/site constraints and iterators should NOT affect the METADATA table > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-324 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-324 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 1.4.0 > Reporter: John Vines > Fix For: 1.6.0 > > > Currently any system and site wide constraints and iterators set will affect > the !METADATA table. While we want to provide this level of configuration to > make things easier for users, we also don't want to have this feature which > is essentially useless due to ill effects on this critical table. We should > make specific exceptions that any site/system-wide iterators, constraints, > and other scan/write-time affecting configurations do not affect the > !METADATA site. If we need an iterator/constraint running against the > !METADATA table, it will have to be configured for it specifically. > Do not fix until after ACCUMULO-323 has been resolved. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
