Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-4655:
------------------------------------
Two quick notes from looking over the doc:
- the names are a little confusing to me - "in-cluster back up" is actually two
clusters, right? I'd call your "RBU" an in-cluster backup, I'd call your CBU an
"in-datacenter backup", and I'd call your DBU a "cross-datacenter backup", "DR
backup", or "BCP backup".
- For RBU, maybe we can get atomicity in a simpler manner by having the region
server initiate the copy of hfiles? It can hold the lock to block flushes while
the copies happen (they're hard-link copies, right?)
