Hum, So I don't know how I can implement what Anoop suggested: Default OFF, and use CQD statement to set it to SYSTEM? Then when we are confident, set Default to SYSTEM... ??? Eric

I think this is the expected behavior. When the option is system, it takes the default value(internally referred as default defaults). The default value can be changed by setting the CQD in the default table.

The For the smallScanner feature, I implemented a CQD. I defaulted it to ‘OFF’, but it can take ‘SYSTEM’ and ‘ON’. When I do: Control query default hbase_small_scanner ‘SYSTEM’; And I check with: Showcontrol defaults; I get HBASE_SMALL_SCANNER OFF; When I do: Control query default hbase_small_scanner ‘ON’; And I check with : Showcontrol defaults; I correctly get HBASE_SMALL_SCANNER ON; Is there an obvious reason why this is happening or should I debug the code to understand why?
