---------------------------------
Summary: [Distributed] Split the snapshot when sending to follower
Key: IOTDB-998
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IOTDB-998
Project: Apache IoTDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core/Cluster
Reporter: Houliang Qi
Now, when the follower is much behind the leader, the leader will send a
snapshot, but when the snapshot size is greater than thrift's maxFrameSize, the
sending will fail, so that the follower will never catch up with the leader.
I think we need to split the snapshot request and then send it to the follower.
But this also brings a problem when we use an asynchronous server. How to
ensure the order after the split request is sent to the follower. Two options
are possible as follows:
1. Mark the segment number in the header of the request sent by the leader, and
splice the request on the follower side.
2. Like the follower downloading TsFile process, the snapshot is downloaded in
segments on the follower side, but the snapshot data needs to be persisted on
the leader side.
I would like the first one, any ideas about this?
