ShiXing updated HBASE-6370:
---------------------------
Summary: Add compression codec test at HMaster when
createTable/modifyColumn/modifyTable (was: Add compression codec test at
HMaster when create table)
> Add compression codec test at HMaster when
> createTable/modifyColumn/modifyTable
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-6370
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6370
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: ShiXing
> Assignee: ShiXing
> Priority: Minor
>
> We deployed a cluster that none of the regionserver supports the compression
> codec such like "lzo", but the cluster user/client does not know this, and he
> specifies the family's compression codec by
> HColumnDescripto.setCompressionType(Compresson.Algorithm.LZO);
> Because the HBaseAdmin's createTable is async, so the client is waiting all
> the regions of the table to be online forever. And client does not know why
> the regions are not online until the HBase administrator find this problem.
> In deed, all of the regions are assigning by master, but regionserver's
> openHRegion always failed.
> In my option, we can suppose all the cluster's enviroment are the same, means
> if the master is deployed some lib, the regionserver should also be deployed.
> Of course above is just a supposeļ¼ in real deployment, the hbase dba may just
> deploy lib on regionserver or master.
> So I think this failure can be found earlier before master create the
> CreateTableHandler thread, and we can tell client quickly we didn't support
> this compression codec type.
> I will upload the patch later.
