HBase snapshot custom directory
Hi all,
Is it possible to specify the output HDFS directory for HBase snapshot?
It could be very helpful to keep snapshots sorted according to a date.
Thank you.

you should not access/modify the /hbase directory directly.
but after export you can use the "delete_snapshot" command or
Admin.deleteSnapshot() API to delete it.

Hi Matteo,
Thank you, for a quick reply.
In this case, after exporting a snapshot to the location I want in my local machine,
can I delete the same snapshot from the default location, /hbase/.hbase-snapshot ?
Thank you.

on export you can specify any path
$ hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.snapshot.ExportSnapshot -snapshot
MySnapshot -copy-to hdfs://MY_SERVER:MY_PORT/MY_LOCATION
so you can do:
$ hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.snapshot.ExportSnapshot -snapshot
MySnapshot -copy-to hdfs://localhost/backup/january-2015
