-------------------------------------
Summary: HBase Shell Documentation For DROP Is Outdated
Key: HBASE-6503
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6503
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Paul Cavallaro
Assignee: Paul Cavallaro
Priority: Trivial
HBase Shell help documentation for the drop command says:
"If table has more than one region, run a major compaction on .META."
According to JD this is old news:
jdcryans: back in the days when hadoop didn't support durability it was
possible to lose .META. data so we were force flushing .META. and major
compacting it all the time also we used to have consistency issues that major
compacting was solving ahhh the good old days
