-----------------------------
Summary: Add support to delete empty regions in 0.94.x series
Key: HBASE-10309
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10309
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: AcCud
Fix For: 0.94.16
My use case: I have several tables where keys start with a timestamp. Because
of this and combined with the fact that I have set a 15 days retention period,
after a period of time results empty regions.
I am sure that no write will occur in these region.
It would be nice to have a tool to delete regions without being necessary to
stop the cluster.
The easiest way for me is to have a tool that is able to delete all empty
regions, but there wouldn't be any problem to specify which region to delete.
Something like:
deleteRegion <tableName> <region>
