Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-1621:
-------------------------------------------
bq. Will the java api be supported?
I'm not sure I understand the question, but the reason a script was built in
the first place (instead of java code) is to be able to include it in a 0.90
release without breaking compatibility, while offering development flexibility.
It could eventually be included in hbck.
> merge tool should work on online cluster, but disabled table

> taking down the entire cluster to merge 2 regions is a pain, i dont see why
> the table or regions specifically couldnt be taken offline, then merged then
> brought back up.
> this might need a new API to the regionservers so they can take direction
> from not just the master.
