Ankit Singhal commented on PHOENIX-2890:
----------------------------------------
Agreed [~giacomotaylor],
To the least we can extend the tool to build the index from disable timestamp
till the timestamp of the start of the job as against to be used for initial
build only ( from timestamp 0 to <index_creation_timestamp>). This may be
helpful for cases when index rebuild is lagging a lot or disable for some
reason, and we want to catch using MR job.
Do you see if it can result in any inconsistency?

> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ankit Singhal
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently , IndexTool is used for initial index rebuild but I think we should
> extend it to be used for recovering index from last disabled timestamp too.
> In general terms if we run IndexTool on already existing/new index, then it
> should follow the same semantics as followed by background Index rebuilding
> thread.
