Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-16181:
-------------------------------------------
[~mbertozzi], we need snapshots for hbase:backup table to implement fault
tolerance during backup procedure. Before backup starts we snapshot
hbase:backup. If backup fails, we clean up all files/dirs and restore
hbase:backup from snapshot.
