------------------------------------------
Summary: [list | abort] Compactions
Key: HBASE-12446
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12446
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 1.0.0
Reporter: Manukranth Kolloju
Fix For: 1.0.0
In some cases, we would need to quickly reduce load on a server without killing
it. Compactions is one of the critical processes which takes up a lot of CPU
and disk IOPS. We should have a way to list compactions given the regionserver
and abort compactions given regionserver and compaction id. And additionally
abort all compactions.
Pardon me if there was already a similar Jira, I'd be happy to merge this there.
The current code handles interrupts. We should be able to interrupt the thread
that is performing the compaction and abort it from either the UI or from the
command line. This Jira is targeted to expose an admin function to perform such
a task.
