             Summary: Extend phoenix.allow.system.catalog.rollback to completely rollback changes introduced by Splittable SYSTEM.CATALOG
                 Key: PHOENIX-6035
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-6035
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Chinmay Kulkarni


Currently, phoenix.allow.system.catalog.rollback=true just makes sure that SYSTEM.CATALOG does not split and continues writing parent column metadata with view metadata. Clients that want 4.15/4.x features without needing SYSTEM.CATALOG to be splittable can already just provide phoenix.system.catalog.splittable=false. We should extend the phoenix.allow.system.catalog.rollback config so that when it is true, it will include the following:

* Continue writing parent->child links to SYSTEM.CATALOG instead of using SYSTEM.CHILD_LINK
* Not use SYSTEM.TASK for dropping child views but directly issue the drop view commands since SYSTEM.CATALOG is on a single region anyways
* In the upgrade path for 4.16, if this config is on, we will have to reliably also do the following:
# Move all parent->child links from SYSTEM.CHILD_LINK to SYSTEM.CATALOG
# Clean the SYSTEM.TASK table and execute all unscheduled tasks
