Jean-Daniel Cryans created HBASE-6990:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: Pretty print TTL
Key: HBASE-6990
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6990
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.92.2, 0.94.2
Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.92.3, 0.94.3, 0.96.0
I've seen a lot of users getting confused by the TTL configuration and I think
that if we just pretty printed it it would solve most of the issues. For
example, let's say a user wanted to set a TTL of 90 days. That would be
7776000. But let's say that it was typo'd to 77760000 instead, it gives you 900
days!
So when we print the TTL we could do something like "x days, x hours, x
minutes, x seconds (real_ttl_value)". This would also help people when they use
ms instead of seconds as they would see really big values in there.
