It seem that there might be a bug in RowDeletingIterator: after using RowDeletingIterator I get expected results when querying by rowId and CF, e.g.
scan -b myrowid -c field/abc -t table <---- doesn't return deleted rows as expected however if I add column qualified to the query, I see deleted items. scan -b myrowid -c field/abc:sample_qualifier -t table <-- returns deleted rows After major compaction the problem goes away. Is it expected behavior? Konstantin
