Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-9906:
-----------------------------------------

You can use the power of out-of-order ts by doing puts first, getting the ts, and then doing deletes at that ts minus 1 :) although iirc meta might break because of that, because the key-before code optimizes by assuming no out-of-order ts across files.

> After snaphot restore, we see failures to find the table in meta:
> {code}
> > disable 'tablefour'
> > restore_snapshot 'snapshot_tablefour'
> > enable 'tablefour'
> ERROR: Table tablefour does not exist.'
> {code}
> This is quite subtle. From the looks of it, we successfully restore the snapshot, do the meta updates, return to the client about the status. The client then tries to do an operation for the table (like enable table, or scan in the test outputs) which fails because the meta entry for the region seems to be gone (in case of single region, the table will be reported missing). Subsequent attempts for creating the table will also fail because the table directories will be there, but not the meta entries.
> For restoring meta entries, we are doing a delete then a put to the same region:
> {code}

> 2013-11-04 10:39:52,111 INFO org.apache.hadoop.hbase.catalog.MetaEditor: Added 1
> {code}
> The root cause for this sporadic failure is that, the delete and subsequent put will have the same timestamp if they execute in the same ms. The delete will override the put in the same ts, even though the put have a larger ts.
