[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-15972) hbase backup set command should not accept non-existing table

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15972?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15317451#comment-15317451 ] 

Ted Yu commented on HBASE-15972:
--------------------------------

We can check whether the table exists before adding the table to the backup set.

Question is:
how do we convey that certain table(s) is not added to the set.
{code}
  public void addToBackupSet(String name, TableName[] tables) throws IOException;
{code}
Maybe change the return type for the above method in BackupAdmin ?

> [~romil.choksi] discovered that 'backup set add' command doesn't check whether the table exists before adding the table to the named set.
