> {code}
> it better to change into
> {code}
> table.addFamily(new
> HColumnDescriptor(CF_DEFAULT).setCompressionType(Algorithm.NONE));
> {code}
> 3.
> Before modify column family , get the table from connection
> Change
> {code}
> HTableDescriptor table = new HTableDescriptor(tableName);
> {code}
> into
> {code}
> Table table = connection.getTable(TableName.valueOf(tablename));
> {code}
