stack commented on HBASE-17852:
-------------------------------

bq. When backup fails, we restore backup system table from snapshot.

Why would you restore a backup system table from a snapshot when a 'backup' 
fails? Backups are of user-space tables. How does this impinge on the backup 
'system' table?

bq. If Observers write to the same table as general backup operation, some data 
from Observers may be lost when we restore table from snapshot. I thought, I 
explained that.

Where?

Is there a writeup on how this all works? (It is not in the user-guide)

bq. They are system from the point of view of a user. checkSystemTable checks 
backup system table.

This is going to confuse. 'system' tables have a particular meaning in hbase.
