We had some corrupt WAL blocks on our stage environment the other day and opted to delete them. We not have some missing metadata and about 3k files pending for replication. I've dug into it a bit and noticed that many of the WALs in the `order` queue of the replication table A) no longer exist in HDFS and B) have no entries in the `repl` section of the replication table.
Based on the code, if there are no entries in the `repl` section, then the work will never be queued for completion via ZooKeeper and therefore never finished -- does this make sense? What'd be the suggestion here to proceed? I'm thinking a one-off tool to backfill the `repl` section should do the trick, but I am wondering if this is something that should be changed in Accumulo?
