Esteban Gutierrez commented on HBASE-6028:
------------------------------------------
I will to take this one, we ran into an issue when a customer accidentally
triggered a major compaction and that impacted the performance during regular
business hours.
> Implement a cancel for in-progress compactions

> Key: HBASE-6028
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6028
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: regionserver
> Reporter: Derek Wollenstein
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: compaction, noob, operations, regionserver
>
> Depending on current server load, it can be extremely expensive to run
> periodic minor / major compactions. It would be helpful to have a feature
> where a user could use the shell or a client tool to explicitly cancel an
> in-progress compactions. This would allow a system to recover when too many
> regions became eligible for compactions at once
