Matteo Bertozzi commented on HBASE-10926:
-----------------------------------------

{quote}We don't need to have the agreement or consistency to flush across 
region servers anyway. Any concern?{quote}
ok, I read the description of this jira. and what you really want is just 
broadcasting a command to all the regions. not using a two-phase commit like 
system.

If you look at HBASE-9864, there is some agreement to implement two 
notification systems. 
a two-phase commit one for broadcasting operations like grant/revoke on every 
region server (the procedure),
and another one which is just a "state change" notification, which doesn't 
require strong guarantees, which will probably be used by quotas as HBASE-11059.

since you have already done the patch, and all the code seems to be isolated in 
procedure/flush i guess is fine if you just use acquireBarrier() to do the flush

> Currently, user can trigger table flush through hbase shell or HBaseAdmin 
> API.  To flush the table cache, each region server hosting the regions is 
> contacted and flushed sequentially, which is less efficient.
> In HBase snapshot global procedure is used to coordinate and flush the 
> regions in a distributed way.
> Let's provide a distributed table flush for general use.
