------------------------------------------
[~James Taylor]
Right now, we call the waitForCompletion() on the job instance which we
should change to a simple submit to return immediately. I don't see that in the
attached IndexTool.java . Also, to update the state , I don't see any
alternatives other than adding a reducer to the mix.
I believe we should provide the option to the end user to choose between
bulk load and direct put approach as I have the same opinion as [~Gabriel Reid]
has mentioned.
> Failure of one mapper should not affect other mappers in MR index build

> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: James Taylor
> Attachments: IndexTool.java

>
> Once a mapper in the MR index job succeeds, it should not need to be re-done
> in the event of the failure of one of the other mappers. The initial
> population of an index is based on a snapshot in time, so new rows getting
> *after* the index build has started and/or failed do not impact it.
> Also, there's a 1:1 correspondence between index rows and table rows, so
> there's really no need to dedup. However, the index rows will have a
> different row key than the data table, so I'm not sure how the HFiles are
> split. Will they potentially overlap and is this an issue?
