[HBASE-21871] Support to specify a peer table name in VerifyReplication tool

• Type: Improvement
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Fix Version/s: 3.0.0-alpha-1, 2.2.0, 2.3.0, 2.1.4

Release Note

After HBASE-21871, we can specify a peer table name with --peerTableName in VerifyReplication tool like the following:
hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.replication.VerifyReplication --peerTableName=peerTable 5 TestTable

In addition, we can compare any 2 tables in any remote clusters with specifying both peerId and --peerTableName.

For example:
hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.replication.VerifyReplication --peerTableName=peerTable zk1,zk2,zk3:2181/hbase TestTable

Description

After HBASE-21201, we can specify peerQuorumAddress instead of peerId in VerifyReplication tool. So it no longer requires peerId to be setup when using this tool. However, we don't have a way to specify a peer table name in VerifyReplication for now.

So I would like to propose to update the tool to pass as a peer table name as an argument (ex. --peerTableName=<tablename>).

After resolving this Jira, we will be able to compare any 2 tables in any remote clusters.
