I am doing some tests of append operation (HTable.append(Append append)) and it seems that if cell being appended has multiple versions , all except the last one get deleted. Is it correct behavior or I am doing something wrong in my tests? The test is simple. I have a row with 3 CF and 3 qualifiers in each CF and 10 versions (total # KVs stored for row is 90). I test append on the row (for each CF:Qualifier combination) public void testAppend() { int index = 2; LOG.error("Test append started. Testing "+index+" row"); byte[] row = data.get(index).get(0).getRow(); byte[] toAppend = "APPEND".getBytes(); LOG.error(" Append row: "+ new String(row)); // Get all data for the row Get get = createGet(row, null, null, null); get.setMaxVersions(Integer.MAX_VALUE); Result result = tableA.get(get); List<KeyValue> ll = result.list(); // Correct list size is 3 (total families)*3 (total columns) *10 (# versions) = 90 assertEquals( 90, ll.size() ); // Do append to All 3 * 3 = 9 cells in a row Append append = createAppend(row, Arrays.asList(FAMILIES), Arrays.asList(COLUMNS), toAppend); Result r = tableA.append(append); ll = r.list(); assertEquals( 9, ll.size() ); // Check row again get = createGet(row, null, null, null); get.setMaxVersions(Integer.MAX_VALUE); result = tableA.get(get); assertEquals (90, result.size()); // This assertion FAILS: actual size is 9 } Best regards, Vladimir Rodionov Principal Platform Engineer Carrier IQ, www.carrieriq.com e-mail: vrodio...@carrieriq.com Confidentiality Notice: The information contained in this message, including any attachments hereto, may be confidential and is intended to be read only by the individual or entity to whom this message is addressed.
