Alicia Ying Shu commented on PHOENIX-2221:
------------------------------------------

[~rajeshbabu] INDEX_RECOVERY_FAILURE_POLICY_KEY and 
INDEX_FAILURE_POLICY_CONF_KEY are two different flags. Per James's previous 
comments, I used INDEX_RECOVERY_FAILURE_POLICY_KEY to set up a new failure 
policy. Cannot remove the checks.  As discussed, I replace the patch after 
removing the other redundant checks. Thanks for the review.

[~jamestaylor] Would you please take a look? We want this patch to be included 
in 4.6.0 RC.

> In one usecase, it was deemed better to not accept writes when the index 
> regions are unavailable for any reason (as opposed to disabling the index and 
> the queries doing bigger data-table scans).
> The idea is that the index regions are kept consistent with the data regions, 
> and when a query runs against the index regions, one can be reasonably sure 
> that the query ran with the most recent data in the data regions. When the 
> index regions are unavailable, the writes to the data table are rejected. 
> Read queries off of the index regions would have deterministic performance 
> (and on the other hand if the index is disabled, then the read queries would 
> have to go to the data regions until the indexes are rebuilt, and the queries 
> would suffer).
