Jean-Marc Spaggiari commented on HBASE-10536:
---------------------------------------------
I think we should offer the 2 options. Maybe someone will want to load all what
can be loaded, and deal with the errors afterward.
So maybe we can add a "--strict" option to fail if column doesn't exist or the
opposite?
> ImportTsv should fail fast if any of the column family passed to the job is
> not present in the table
