BELUGA BEHR updated HBASE-19646:
--------------------------------
Description:
HBase provides _hbase.hregion.majorcompaction_
{quote}
Time between major compactions, expressed in milliseconds. Set to 0 to disable
time-based automatic major compactions. User-requested and size-based major
compactions will still run. This value is multiplied by
hbase.hregion.majorcompaction.jitter to cause compaction to start at a
somewhat-random time during a given window of time. The default value is 7
days, expressed in milliseconds. If major compactions are causing disruption in
your environment, you can configure them to run at off-peak times for your
deployment, or disable time-based major compactions by setting this parameter
to 0, and run major compactions in a cron job or by another external mechanism.
{quote}
Instead of this existing mechanism, that adds randomness into a production
system (ugh), let's simply allow users to specify a cron string and replace
this simple periodic (+jitter) scheduling mechanism. CRON is useful for
systems that have known windows of time (i.e. weekend, nights) that are known
to be good times for compaction.
