             Summary: Support for smooth maintenance window
                 Key: KUDU-3011
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-3011
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: LiFu He


A scan corresponding to a tablet failure causes the entire SQL to fail on the 
common query engines, such as Impala. Though we have the fault-tolerant feature 
by "SetFaultTolerant()", Impala doesn't use it right now since that will make 
lower throughput. Thus, lots of SQL that are running will fail when we 
shutdown/reboot/upgrade the tserver. That can be scary.

Maybe we can do some improvement in this area, for example, the tablets are not 
allowed to be scanned after the tserver is in maintenance mode (KUDU-2069). And 
for the LEADER_ONLY mode scanning, the leader role needs to be shifted from the 
maintenance tserver. Then we can shutdown the tserver smoothly after all the 
existing SQL are completed.
