The log does not indicate if this is a major one, one has to enable debug log to see that. I will set up another cluster for test this. I also check HRS code in branch-0.18 and agree that we didn't persist on the major compaction period (default 1 day). We only request the compact at 1) region open and 2) region split/merge, at which we check the last major compaction time.
After I confirm the compaction I see at start up are all majors, I will file an issue. Thanks, stack!
