Sorry for the flood of e-mails... I'm not trying to spam the list, I'm just getting deeper into accumulo, and loving it, and I'm kind of stumped by it at the same time.
Is it true that if a scanner restricts the column families/qualifiers to be returned, that these columns are not visible to any iterators? ie. that this restriction is applied at a higher "priority" than any of the iterators? I have some rows that look like this: 000200001cdaac30 meta:size [] 656 000200001cdaac30 meta:source [] data2 000200001cfaac30 meta:filename [] doc04484522 000200001cfaac30 meta:size [] 565 000200001cfaac30 meta:source [] data2 000200001dcaac30 meta:filename [] doc03342958 I have a couple of RowFilters chained together to filter based on source and filename. If I just run "scan --columns meta:size" I get no results. I have to specify "scan --columns meta:size,meta:source,meta:filename" to get any results, which implies that I need to know beforehand which columns are required for any active iterators. Is this expected behaviour? Thanks, -Russ
