Recent changes now > allow iterator and locality groups to be created at table creation. Do the > same with splits. Comment below from > [ACCUMULO-4806|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4806] explains > the motivation for the request: > {quote}[~etcoleman] added a comment - 2 hours ago > It would go al long way if the splits could be added at table creation or > when table is offline. When the other API changes were made by Mark, I > wondered if this task could also could be done at that time - but I believe > that it was more complicated. > The delay is that when a table is created and then the splits added and then > taken offline there is a period proportional to the number of splits as they > are off-loaded from the tserver where they originally got assigned. (The > re-online with splits distributed across the cluster is quite fast) > If the splits could be added at table creation, or while the table is offline > so that the delay for shedding the tablets could be avoided, then the need to > perform the actual import offline would not be as necessary. > > {quote} > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
