> 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: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: John Vines
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> 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.
