Xu Cang commented on HBASE-21959:
---------------------------------
Good point! [~wchevreuil]
I also think this JIRA needs a unit test that spins up a mini cluster and
verifies compacted files are archived. (Take a look at this test:
TestCompactedHFilesDischarger)
> CompactionTool should close the store it uses for compacting files, in order
> to properly archive compacted files.

>
> While using CompactionTool to offload RSes, noticed compacted files were
> never archived from original region dir, causing the space used by the region
> to actually double. Going through its compaction related code on HStore,
> which is used by CompactionTool for performing compactions, found out what
> that compacted files archiving happens mainly while closing the HStore
> instance. CompactionTool is never explicitly closing its HStore instance, so
> adding a simple patch that properly close the store.
