ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-11639:
------------------------------------------------
In order to easily back port this feature to 0.98, it would be better if we
could just remove the new hook added for Replicationendpoint to instead create
a hook for the ReplicationSource and in the VC just wrap that ReplicationSource
with custom impl.
The ReplicaitonSourceInterface may need some interface changes to be done like
add shipEdits() and a boolean returning API that checks if the
interClusterReplicationIsPossible would ensure that the entire change that we
are doing for 0.99 and master can easily be ported to 0.98 without the need for
backporting the entire ReplicationEndpoint things.
I can raise a JIRA to move the endpoints and then subsequent patches for all
branches. Thoughts?
> [Visibility controller] Replicate the visibility of Cells as strings

> Key: HBASE-11639
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11639
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Replication, security
> Affects Versions: 0.98.4
> Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
> Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
> Labels: VisibilityLabels
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 0.98.8, 0.99.1
>
>
> This issue is aimed at persisting the visibility labels as strings in the WAL
> rather than Label ordinals. This would help in replicating the label
> ordinals to the replication cluster as strings directly and also that after
> HBASE-11553 would help because the replication cluster could have an
> implementation as string based visibility labels.
