The wiki page for cluster replication <http://hbase.apache.org/docs/r0.89.20100924/replication.html> has a FAQ at the bottom that says:
> Why do all clusters need to be in the same timezone? > > Suppose an edit to cell X happens in a EST cluster, then 2 minutes later a > new edits happens to the same cell in a PST cluster and that both clusters > are in a master-master replication. The second edit is considered younger, so > the first will always hide it while in fact the second is older. That has to be wrong, doesn't it? Timestamps would all be in UTC, so the local timezone is irrelevant. Am I overlooking something obvious, and if not, can I trust the rest of this document? Thanks. joe
