ryan rawson commented on HBASE-2197: ------------------------------------ I am not generally a fan of depending on files and region layout. We need to have a system where we can bring up a cluster immediately and get new edits in then pull in the rest of them as fast as possible. I think the latter process should be out of bounds, ie: lets keep the replication core in HRS really small, then add value on and around it, possibly with some HRS hooks if necessary. As for the random read issue, we should highly consider removing that code. > Start replication from a point in time > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2197 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2197 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > > One way to set up a cluster for replication is to distcp all files then start > the replication.
