             Summary: Backup documentation update
                 Key: HBASE-17133
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17133
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Vladimir Rodionov


We need to update backup doc to sync it with the current implementation and to add section for current limitations:
{quote}
- if you write to the table with Durability.SKIP_WALS your data will not
be in the incremental-backup
 - if you bulkload files that data will not be in the incremental backup
(HBASE-14417)
 - the incremental backup will not only contains the data of the table you
specified but also the regions from other tables that are on the same set
of RSs (HBASE-14141) ...maybe a note about security around this topic
 - the incremental backup will not contains just the "latest row" between
backup A and B, but it will also contains all the updates occurred in
between. but the restore does not allow you to restore up to a certain
point in time, the restore will always be up to the "latest backup point".
 - you should limit the number of "incremental" up to N (or maybe SIZE), to
avoid replay time becoming the bottleneck. (HBASE-14135)
