             Summary: MetaData #getTables() API doesn't return view indexes
                 Key: PHOENIX-3475
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-3475
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Akshita Malhotra
             Fix For: 4.9.0


HBase migration tool uses DatabaseMetadata#getTables() API to retrieve the 
tables for copying data. We have found that API doesn't return base index 
tables ( _IDX_<base table name>)

For testing purposes, we issue following DDL to generate the view and the 
corresponding view index:
-CREATE VIEW IF NOT EXISTS MIGRATIONTEST_VIEW (OLD_VALUE_VIEW varchar) AS 
SELECT * FROM MIGRATIONTEST WHERE OLD_VALUE like 'E%'
-CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS MIGRATIONTEST_VIEW_IDX ON MIGRATIONTEST_VIEW 
(OLD_VALUE_VIEW)

By using HBase API, we were able to confirm that base index table 
(_IDX_MIGRATIONTEST) is created. 

Both jdbc  DatabaseMetadata API and P* getMetaDataCache API doesn't seem to be 
returning view indexes. Also P*MetaData #getTableRef API return 
"TableNotFoundException" when attempted to fetch PTable corresponding to the 
base index table name.
