Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-2231:
------------------------------------

bq. This would need that the region server use org.apache.hadoop.fs.create() 
while crearing a hlog file (which allows failing a create if any intermediate 
directory in the path is absent).

Which API does this? I was under the impression that all of the available 
create() APIs recursively mkdired the containing directory (though maybe I'm 
out of date or just plain wrong)

> Compaction events should be written to HLog

> The sequence for a compaction should look like this:
> # Compact region to "new" files
> # Write a "Compacted Region" entry to the HLog
> # Delete "old" files
> This deals with a case where the RS has paused between step 1 and 2 and the 
> regions have since been reassigned.
