Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-23634: ---------------------------------------- Every time we flush, we create the HFile in a tmp dir while the flush is ongoing. At end as part of commit, we do atomic rename. So we will never have a partially written HFile under CF. Here if we do write the HFiles directly under thd CF, we have a chance that we will get to see a partially written HFile. That is the point raised. > Enable "Split WAL to HFile" by default > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-23634 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-23634 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha-1, 2.3.0 > Reporter: Guanghao Zhang > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 3.0.0-alpha-1, 2.4.0 > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
