Matteo Bertozzi commented on HBASE-8352:
----------------------------------------
forgot to say that if you take a snapshot during the RS upgrades nothing bad
happen... you just end up with the .snapshot folder again, and the snapshot
will fail since half of the data will be in .hbase-snapshot and the other half
in .snapshot
> Rename '.snapshot' directory

> Testing HBase Snapshot on top of Hadoop's Snapshot branch
> (http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/branches/HDFS-2802/), we found
> that both features used '.snapshot' directory to store metadata.
> HDFS (built from HDFS-2802 branch) doesn't allow paths with .snapshot as a
> component
> From discussion on [email protected], (see
> http://search-hadoop.com/m/kY6C3cXMs51), consensus was to rename '.snapshot'
> directory in HBase so that both features can co-exist smoothly.
