Reid Chan commented on HBASE-22806:
-----------------------------------
bq. it should do nothing .. have the same TableDescriptor.. ,the cells are
deleted when that call does run.
Yes, it is unreasonable.
Community encourages volunteering, but under your context 'waste time' which
sounds unwilling and being forced, I'd suggest you just set it aside and let
someone have interest to take it.:)
> Recreating a deleted column family brings back the deleted cells
> ----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-22806
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-22806
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 2.1.3
> Environment: Scala
> HBase Java Client
> Mac/Linux
> Reporter: Chao
> Priority: Major
>
> Steps to reproduce the bug:
> # Create a table with column family CF
> # Add some cells C1, C2 in CF
> # Remove CF using either:
> ** TableDescriptorBuilder.removeColumnFamily() and Admin.modifyTable()
> ** Admin.deleteColumnFamily()
> # Create CF again
> Expected: no cells (all cells marked as deleted) in CF
> Actual: C1, C2 shows up automatically in CF
> Extra information: in step 3, if doing Admin.modifyColumnFamily() without
> actually changing anything, then after step 4 the cells won't come back.
