Description

HBase provide an export snapshot command to MR copy the snapshot files into a remove cluster. However, if current cluster is not running MR, but target cluster is, we will need to export the list of files into the target cluster and run a distcp from there.

To do so, given a snapshot name we need HBase to provide the list of files belonging to it.
