Dinesh Bhat commented on KUDU-1618:
-----------------------------------
Although above issue was not exactly related to 'local_replica delete' tool we
are writing, this issue was observed more or less in the context of some
testing around the usability of this tool, hence using an existing JIRA to
investigate the above observations.
> Add local_replica tool to delete a replica

> Key: KUDU-1618
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1618
> Project: Kudu
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ops-tooling
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Assignee: Dinesh Bhat
>
> Occasionally we've hit cases where a tablet is corrupt in such a way that the
> tserver fails to start or crashes soon after starting. Typically we'd prefer
> the tablet just get marked FAILED but in the worst case it causes the whole
> tserver to fail.
> For these cases we should add a 'local_replica' subtool to fully remove a
> local tablet. Related, it might be useful to have a 'local_replica archive'
> which would create a tarball from the data in this tablet for later
> examination by developers.
