Description

When we create/drop some indexes in one datacenter, the replication pair doesn't immediately have this index and Hbase throws a replication error when we try to write into indexes that don't have a matching table on the replication pair.

To remediate this issue, we can optionally create them in CREATE_DISABLED state and enable them after all the replication peers have the table.

Same is true for dropping indexes. When they are dropped we can first disable them and drop them later.
