Kaufman Ng created HBASE-7846:
---------------------------------
Summary: Add support for merging implicit regions in Merge tool
Key: HBASE-7846
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7846
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Reporter: Kaufman Ng
Priority: Minor
Currently org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.Merge needs 2 region names to be
explicitly specified to perform a merge. This can be cumbersome.
One idea for improvement is to have Merge to figure out all the adjacent
regions and perform the merges.
For example:
regions before merge: row-10, row-20, row-30, row-40, row-50
regions after merge: row-10, row-30, row-50
In the above example, region names of "row-10" and "row-20" are merged to
become a new bigger region of "row-10".
