[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-4552) multi-CF bulk load is not atomic across column families

["Ted Yu (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4552?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13124506#comment-13124506 ] 

Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4552:
-------------------------------

One solution is to add the following method to HRegionInterface:
{code}
  public void bulkLoadHFile(List<Pair<byte[], String>> familyPaths, byte[] regionName)
  throws IOException;
{code}
familyPaths is a list of <family, hfilePath> pairs for the same region identified by regionName.

LoadIncrementalHFiles would need to group HFiles for the same region together before calling the above method.

> Currently the bulk load API simply imports one HFile at a time. With multi-column-family support, this is inappropriate, since different CFs show up separately. Instead, the IPC endpoint should take a of CF -> HFiles, so we can online them all under a single region-wide lock.
