Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-24424:
----------------------------------------
Can you achieve the same thing by having a custom co processor? This CP can
make sure that these qualifiers are deleted while doing major compact?
> Make it easy to delete all data for specify qualifiers

> Key: HBASE-24424
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24424
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Compaction
> Reporter: Zheng Wang
> Assignee: Zheng Wang
> Priority: Major
>
> We developed a great many user features that each one as a qualifier stored
> in a table which has only one column family, when we planed to decommission
> some of them, but found not easy to do.
>
> My propasal is add a hint for major_compact, eg:
> {code:java}
> major_compact_delete_extra_qualifiers 'table', 'cf','q1','q2'{code}
> This command will delete all of the cells for q1 and q2.
