Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-5487:
-----------------------------------------
That's an interesting one. Given that snapshots by default have no guarantees
wrt consistent writes between regions (or do they), seems like snapshot should
get the latest schema in case of concurrent alter. Is there any consideration
(other the arguably implementation issues of not recovering from close-open)
that would prevent that? For consistent snapshots presumably the schema can be
snapshotted first, I am assuming they don't stop the world and just take
seqId/mvcc/ts or something, so the newer values with new schema will just "not
exist".

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: master, regionserver, Zookeeper
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0
> Reporter: Mubarak Seyed
> Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin
> Priority: Critical

> Need a framework to execute master-coordinated tasks in a fault-tolerant
> manner.
> Master-coordinated tasks such as online-scheme change and delete-range
> (deleting region(s) based on start/end key) can make use of this framework.
> The advantages of framework are
> 1. Eliminate repeated code in Master, ZooKeeper tracker and Region-server for
> master-coordinated tasks
> 2. Ability to abstract the common functions across Master -> ZK and RS -> ZK
> 3. Easy to plugin new master-coordinated tasks without adding code to core
> components
