Parent: HBASE-1295
> Collect HLogs and delete them after a period of time

> Key: HBASE-2070

> Project: Hadoop HBase

> For replication we need to be able to service clusters that are a few hours
> behind in edits. For example, after distcp'ing a snapshot of the DB to
> another cluster, we need to make sure we get the edits that came in after the
> snapshot was taken.
> I plan the following changes:
> - Instead of deleting HLogs during a log roll or after a log split, move them
> to another folder where all logs should be aggregated.
> - Add a new configuration for how old a log can be. For a normal cluster I
> think of a default of 2 hours. For replication you may want to set it much
> higher.
> - Create a new thread in the master that checks for logs older than
> configured time and that deletes them.
> I also fancy having the deletion time to be configurable while the cluster is
> running. I'm also thinking of adding a way to tell the cluster to replay
> edits on itself.
