------------------------------------
Summary: HBase shell's create table command ignores
'NORMALIZATION_ENABLED' attribute
Key: HBASE-14804
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14804
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: shell
Affects Versions: 1.1.2
Reporter: Romil Choksi
I am trying to create a new table and set the NORMALIZATION_ENABLED as true,
but seems like the argument NORMALIZATION_ENABLED is being ignored. And the
attribute NORMALIZATION_ENABLED is not displayed on doing a desc command on
that table
hbase(main):020:0> create 'test-table-4', 'cf', {NORMALIZATION_ENABLED =>
'true'}
An argument ignored (unknown or overridden): NORMALIZATION_ENABLED
0 row(s) in 4.2670 seconds
=> Hbase::Table - test-table-4
hbase(main):021:0> desc 'test-table-4'
Table test-table-4 is ENABLED
test-table-4
COLUMN FAMILIES DESCRIPTION
{NAME => 'cf', BLOOMFILTER => 'ROW', VERSIONS => '1', IN_MEMORY => 'false',
KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'FALSE', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', TTL => 'FOREVER',
COMPRESSION => 'NONE', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', BLOC
KCACHE => 'true', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0'}
1 row(s) in 0.0430 seconds
However, on doing an alter command on that table we can set the
NORMALIZATION_ENABLED attribute for that table
hbase(main):022:0> alter 'test-table-4', {NORMALIZATION_ENABLED => 'true'}
Unknown argument ignored: NORMALIZATION_ENABLED
Updating all regions with the new schema...
1/1 regions updated.
Done.
0 row(s) in 2.3640 seconds
hbase(main):023:0> desc 'test-table-4'
Table test-table-4 is ENABLED
test-table-4, {TABLE_ATTRIBUTES => {NORMALIZATION_ENABLED => 'true'}
COLUMN FAMILIES DESCRIPTION
{NAME => 'cf', BLOOMFILTER => 'ROW', VERSIONS => '1', IN_MEMORY => 'false',
KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'FALSE', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', TTL => 'FOREVER',
COMPRESSION => 'NONE', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', BLOC
KCACHE => 'true', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0'}
1 row(s) in 0.0190 seconds
I think it would be better to have a single step process to enable
normalization while creating the table itself, rather than a two step process
to alter the table later on to enable normalization
