Subbu M Iyer commented on HBASE-3909:
-------------------------------------

I am seeing that this is a complicated feature with lots of open questions.

1. There are lot of properties/configuration that may have no effect (even with 
dynamic config tool) once the server is up. How do we communicate such cases? 
Do we maintain a smaller subset of configurations that can be changed 
dynamically and only allow those subsets for dynamic changes?

2. There are lot of properties that might take effect during cases of server 
fail over/back up server taking over etc. Basically every dynamic configuration 
change that we apply to the cluster will take effect during server failover/ or 
back server taking over. How do we communicate such cases? Do we even want this?

3. Do we really think that this feature will be a valuable addition?
