[jira] [Commented] (PHOENIX-1821) Implement mechanism to convert a table from non transactional to transactional

["Gary Helmling (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1821?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14484496#comment-14484496 ] 

Gary Helmling commented on PHOENIX-1821:
----------------------------------------

I created a Tephra issue summarizing one way we discussed handling the timestamps on existing data: https://issues.cask.co/browse/TEPHRA-89.

I think this covers the main issue with existing data in a table from a Tephra standpoint, but we can extend it with any other thoughts we come up with.

> Transactional tables (in addition to any indexes) require a transformation to the Cell timestamp (pending HBASE-8927 and some ideas of [~ghelmling]). In addition, different coprocessors need to be installed on a transactional table. We should have a mechanism to translate a table from being non transactional to transactional.
