             Summary: Make CopyTable support copying the first/last several 
regions
                 Key: HBASE-19209
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19209
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: mapreduce
            Reporter: Quanlong Huang


Currently if we want to copy the last 10 regions of a big table, we have to 
supply the startrow option. However, the row key is usually a binary string, 
such as "\x06\xC5-\xBAY\xF8I\xA0\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x01", which is hard to 
provide in bash shell.
It'd be nice if CopyTable provide options to select the first/last several 
regions.
