Matteo Bertozzi commented on HBASE-8642:
----------------------------------------
{quote}Table rename is via cloning snapshot currently (so we rename the table
this way, pairwisely we update all mapped snapshots?)?{quote}
No we don't update the other snapshots info... so they have the old table
name...
{quote}How about the claiming is that listing/deleting snapshot by table name
is based on current table name available?{quote}
I don't really understand this one... at the moment if you list by table name,
you get also the snapshots of the renamed table.
{quote}Yeah, RDBMS has object (database, tablespace, table, column, etc.) id in
catalog, which make external name changable and transparent to system. Is it
possible to using id (shorter) instead of original name bytes in ROOT/META?
Just a question, this involve lots of changes to current HBase.{quote}
