Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-6868:
--------------------------------------
I manually did these tests (0.94 patch):
* started HBase with HBase checksums off, inserted some data, flushed,
compacted, scanned
* restarted HBase with HBase checksums on, inserted some more data,
flush/compacted, scanned
* restarted HBase again with HBase checksums off, inserted some more data,
flush/compacted, scanned
Checked the logs for anything weird. Looks good. Going to commit to 0.94 and
0.96.
> Skip checksum is broke; are we double-checksumming by default?

> The HFile contains checksums for decrease the iops, so when Hbase read HFile
> , that dont't need to read the checksum from meta file of HDFS. But HLog
> file of Hbase don't contain the checksum, so when HBase read the HLog, that
> must read checksum from meta file of HDFS. We could add setSkipChecksum per
> file to hdfs or we could write checksums into WAL if this skip checksum
> facility is enabled
