-----------------------------
Summary: Multi-column family BulkLoad fails if compactions go on
too long
Key: HBASE-11368
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11368
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: stack
Compactions take a read lock. If a multi-column family region, before bulk
loading, we want to take a write lock on the region. If the compaction takes
too long, the bulk load fails.
Various recipes include:
+ Making smaller regions (lame)
+ [~victorunique] suggests major compacting just before bulk loading over in
HBASE-10882 as a work around.
Does the compaction need a read lock for that long? Does the bulk load need a
full write lock when multiple column families? Can we fail more gracefully at
least?
