> Key: ACCUMULO-919
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-919
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: gc
> Reporter: Eric Newton
> Assignee: Eric Newton
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.5.0
>
>
> Consider the catastrophic loss of the namenode.
> Assuming you have a previous snapshot, you can recover the namenode using
> another node back to that snapshot.
> However, the most recently deleted files will show as corrupt, because the
> slightly older state will point to blocks that are now gone.
> If the gc delayed file collection for a period of time longer than the age of
> a snapshot, accumulo could be recovered with the snapshot.
