Hi david,

Thanks for reply

 a) remove mergeIndex property and event listener, add mergeIndex as a part
of loading/compaction transaction.
==> yes, this can be done, as already discussed.

b) if the merging index failed, loading/compaction should fail directly.
==> Agree to this, same as replied to ajantha

c) keep merge_index command and mark it deprecated.
      for a new table, maybe it will do nothing.
      for an old table, maybe we need to tolerate the probable query issue
(not found index files).
      It could be a deprecated feature in the future.
===> for new table we can follow similar to what i replied to ajantha, and
old tables we still need
and since we are avoiding to delete index files immediately for old tables,
we can avoid issue i think.
As you said, we can complete deprecate after sometime,


b). At the end of loading,  retrying to finish index merging or
tablestatus update is a good suggestion.
===> Do you mean, retry count for table status updation and merge index
should be more?

Regards,
Akash
