---------------------------------
Summary: disable_table_replication returns misleading message and
does not turn off repliaton
Key: HBASE-17779
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17779
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Janos Gub
Assignee: Janos Gub
Currently HBaseAdmin#isTableRepEnabled() returns false if ANY of the columns
families is not replicated.
Because of this if you have a table where replication is partially enabled,
calling disable_table_replication will not have any effect, but will report
that replication for a given table is disabled.
Workaround is enabling table replication before disabling.
As a solution quoted from HBASE-17460:
Admin#disableTableReplication() returns nothing and isTableRepEnabled() returns
boolean. For master branch, we can let isTableRepEnabled() return enum
(partially disabled, disabled, etc) This way, Admin#disableTableReplication()
can return meaningful value to the user.
