HBase Snapshot Restrictions

HBase Snapshot has two restrictions :

1. If in any case, regions got merged (usually manually) after the snapshot got taken, the snapshot would be invalid. Splitting regions are fine to snapshot.

2. If you restore data to create a table from snapshot, the replication on another cluster of that new table won't guarantee the data is integral.
