             Summary: enable_table_replication script cannot handle replication scope
                 Key: HBASE-17635
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17635
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Replication
    Affects Versions: 1.3.1
            Reporter: Lars George


When you add a peer, then enable a table for replication using {{enable_table_replication}}, the script will create the table on the peer cluster, but with one difference:

_Master Cluster_:

Note that the replication scope is different. Removing the peer, adding it again and enabling the table gives this now:

{noformat}
hbase(main):026:0> enable_table_replication 'testtable'

ERROR: Table testtable exists in peer cluster 1, but the table descriptors are not same when compared with source cluster. Thus can not enable the table's replication switch.
{noformat}

That is dumb, as it was the same script that enabled the replication scope in the first place. It should skip that particular attribute when comparing the cluster schemas.
