Gary Helmling updated HBASE-16964:
----------------------------------
    Attachment: HBASE-16964.patch

Attaching a patch against master.

This introduces a new FailedArchiveException, which can be thrown by 
HFileArchive.archiveStoreFiles() in order to retain information on which files 
failed.  Only the successfully archived store files will then get cleared from 
the compactedfiles list.

I'd also like to call out a change to HFileArchiver.resolveAndArchiveFile().  
Here I added an explicit catch for FileNotFoundException and do _not_ set 
success to false in that case.  My reasoning is that if we're going to archive 
the file anyway, do we really care (or is it really an error) is the file not 
exist.  I'd appreciate any thoughts or insights on the validity of this from 
other perspectives.

[~ram_krish] please take a look.

> In HStore.removeCompactedFiles(), we only clear archived files from 
> StoreFileManager's list of compactedfiles if _all_ files were archived 
> successfully.  If we encounter an error archiving any of the files, then any 
> files which were already archived will remain in the list of compactedfiles.
> Even worse, this means that all subsequent attempts to archive the list of 
> compacted files will fail (as the previously successfully archived files 
> still in the list will now throw FileNotFoundException), and the list of 
> compactedfiles will never be cleared from that point on.
> Finally, when the region closes, we will again throw an exception out of 
> HStore.removeCompactedFiles(), in this case causing a regionserver abort.
