rajeshbabu commented on HBASE-10536:
------------------------------------
bq. Maybe someone will want to load all what can be loaded, and deal with the
errors afterward.
Yes, there may chance like if column not found, they can add column later.
bq. So maybe we can add a "--strict" option to fail if column doesn't exist or
the opposite?
Its better to add "--strict". I will make patch accordingly.
Thanks JM.
