Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-6055:
------------------------------------
I have a concern. Why should we do two phases? I think the prepare phase is
not needed. We have row level atomicity. We don't need every region server to
be on the same page. Since it is distributed, it is arguable about the meaning
of point-in-time. That means it is hard to say it is consistent/inconsistent
point-in-time.
I think we each region server can try to create the snapshot at first. If
anyone fails, partial snapshot can be just deleted.
