Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-5734:
------------------------------------
Thanks.
Currently, hbck creates a folder /hbase-[timestamp] to hold those regions
sidelined, if it runs in fix mode and needs to sideline some regions, for
example, to fix some overlapped regions. In most cases, this is fine.
However, if HDFS security is turned on and the user doesn't have permission to
create this folder, hbck can't move ahead. With this patch, administrator can
just set the right privilege for folder /hbck, then it will be
good to go.
The other issue is that there will be serveral /hbase-[timestamp] folders after
serveral run. It is better to put them all under /hbck so that we know they
are created by hbck, to avoid confusion.
The next step is to fix HBASE-5714, do some permission checking before trying
to fix those problems invovling sideline some regions.
