Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-1886:
--------------------------------------
One other thing. We might bump families into their own node under the table.
I expect we will have other things we'd like to publish into ZK on a per-table
basis (and probably per-family), like load, status, whatever.
{noformat}
/hbase
/table
/<table-name>
/families/<family-name>
/load({'json':'load info'})
{noformat}
> move table and column family attributes to ZK to make them live

> Key: HBASE-1886
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1886
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Assignee: Andrew Purtell
> Fix For: 0.20.2, 0.21.0
>
> Attachments: live_attributes.patch
>
>
> This is a first cut at moving table and column family attributes up to ZK
> where they can be modified any time without requiring a disable/enable table
> cycle. Adds methods to ZooKeeperWrapper for support server side. Adds methods
> to HTableInterface for client side access. Client side talks directly to ZK.
> The new hierarchy for attributes in ZK is like:
> {noformat}
> /hbase
> /table
> /<table-name>
> /attr
> /<table-attr-name>
> /<family-name>
> /<family-attr-name>
> {noformat}
> As before attribute names and values are byte[], but now that they are hosted
> in ZK, the path delimiter ('/') cannot be used.
> Attached patch compiles but has not been tested. I put it up for a concept
> review. Next step before this is functional is to deprecate the attribute
> related methods on HTD and HCD and chase through the warnings to find all
> users who should be updated to use the ZK wrapper or new HTable methods
> instead. And, of course, then add test cases that successfully complete.
