we will lose data if the table name happens to be the logs' dir name
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1112
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1112
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Samuel Guo
Priority: Minor
If the tablename happens to equal with the logs' dir name of a certain
regionserver, the table will store table's data into the same dir in HDFS
shared with the regionserver's log dir. If the specified region server fails,
the dir may be removed after the logs are replayed. And here, we lose the data.
I suggest that a special char like '_' could be added before the logdir's name,
just as what root region and meta region have done. So we can prevent the user
table's data from being stored in a log dir. for example,
'log_10.132.15.1_1231465024534_60020' will be changed to
'_log_10.132.15.1_1231465024534_60020'.
