Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-16465:
---------------------------------------

bq. Who would be restoring the balancer setting ?
We can use the new maintenance mode introduced in HBASE-16008 for this. We can 
put an ephemeral znode while the backup process is on, so that region 
operations like split / merge and balancing are disabled. See 
HBaseFSCK#setMasterInMaintenanceMode(). [~syuanjiang] what do you think? 

> Disable region splits and merges, balancer during full backup
