Jeffrey Zhong commented on HBASE-10183: --------------------------------------- For user tags, we have no control. For system tags, it's theoretically possible that we can use tag types in non-sequential mode. Since we declare all system tag types in one place, I don't think people will normally do that. > Need enforce a reserved range of system tag types > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-10183 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10183 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Components: HFile > Affects Versions: 0.98.0 > Reporter: Jeffrey Zhong > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.98.0 > > > If we don't reserve a system tag types now, let's say 0-64(total tag type > range is 0-255). We'll have a hard time when introducing a new system tag > type in the future because the new tag type may collide with an existing user > tag type as tag is open to users as well. > [~ram_krish], [~anoop.hbase] How do you guys think? > Thanks! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.4#6159)
