[jira] [Resolved] (HBASE-7015) We need major_compact --force to rewrite all store files for a table

Esteban Gutierrez resolved HBASE-7015.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Closing as won't fix since compaction policies cannot be changed at runtime. Also this behavior can be achieved by setting {{hbase.hstore.compaction.min=1}} ({{EverythingPolicy}} and {{hbase.hstore.compaction.min=1}} should have the same effect too)

> Having major_compact --force would have some advantages:
> 1.) Changing compression type and making sure all storefiles are written with the new value
> 2.) Can help with TTL and expiring all old data
