Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-8963: -------------------------------------- I see. So let's make the retention period configurable per table, and have 0 indicate immediate deletion. (although not sure how hard that is, as we do not have the information when archive cleaner runs - maybe it's too much of a refactoring) > Add configuration option to skip HFile archiving > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-8963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8963 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ted Yu > Assignee: bharath v > Fix For: 0.99.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-8963.trunk.v1.patch, HBASE-8963.trunk.v2.patch, > HBASE-8963.trunk.v3.patch, HBASE-8963.trunk.v4.patch, > HBASE-8963.trunk.v5.patch, HBASE-8963.trunk.v6.patch, > HBASE-8963.trunk.v7.patch > > > Currently HFileArchiver is always called when a table is dropped. > A configuration option (either global or per table) should be provided so > that archiving can be skipped when table is deleted. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
