Component/s: backup&restore
> Backup self validation for its correctness.
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-19106
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19106
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: backup&restore
> Reporter: Amit Kabra
> Priority: Major
>
> Backups are critical and if they don't work when we need them at the time of
> restore than they are not useful. We should do sanity test for each backup
> job we run that it is restorable and hence can be trusted.
> A self validation feature can be added for the same to the backups where
> whenever a backup is run , once it finishes it will trigger a validation job
> that will do a sample restoration of the backed up data and will make sure
> that it compares well with actual data.
