> 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.
