             Summary: Create table/index or alter does not work with unavailable compression options
                 Key: TRAFODION-2475
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-2475
             Project: Apache Trafodion
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sql-general
    Affects Versions: any
            Reporter: Suresh Subbiah
            Assignee: Suresh Subbiah
             Fix For: 2.0-incubating


Create table/index option with HBASE_OPTIONS (COMPRESSION = '<val>') does not work well when <val> is a compression option that is not installed or enabled for HBase on the cluster. The 5 allowed values are GZ, LZO, LZ4, NONE, SNAPPY. If one of the 4 allowed compression settings is either not installed or available to HBase, then while creating a table it can either 
a) hang or take a long time to error out OR
b) succeed, but have problems while inserting rows later.

Non-existent compression library should be detected early and CREATE statement should error out. Same is true for ALTER table.
