Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-12596:
----------------------------------------
If a user migrating from 98 major version to 1.x major version whether they
will go with older minor versions in this 1.x line or with latest minor
version? (Say by that time we had 1.6).
> bulkload needs to follow locality

> Normally, we have 2 steps to perform a bulkload: 1. use a job to write HFiles
> to be loaded; 2. Move these HFiles to the right hdfs directory. However, the
> locality could be loss during the first step. Why not just write the HFiles
> directly into the right place? We can do this easily because
> StoreFile.WriterBuilder has the "withFavoredNodes" method, and we just need
> to call it in HFileOutputFormat's getNewWriter().
> This feature is enabled by default, and we could use
> 'hbase.bulkload.locality.sensitive.enabled=false' to disable it.
