Mikhail Antonov updated HBASE-14367:
------------------------------------
    Attachment: HBASE-14367.patch

Here's patch, tested on my small test rig (3 virtual boxes). Since I tried to 
provide the same kind of tooling as balancer does, this entailed ruby scripts 
changes, protos/rpc changes, new stuff in master rpc services etc, as well as 
new ZK tracker :( so sorry for the size of the patch. And for this piece with 
setting the normalization_enabled on/off flag for the table from shell - I 
tested that on my cluster, it works now, though I still see the warning about 
unknown argument, but same warning is given if I try to disable compaction for 
the table, for example, so that unrelated. Let me know what do you think?

I'm thinking if I need to rework part of it to allow running normalization on a 
specific table on the shell.

Also seems to be  unnecessary and could be improved is that changing 
normalization on/off for the table involves rewriting table descriptor, which 
in the current implementation entails region re-assignment for the whole table 
(??), just as with other 'alter table' subcommands.

> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13103 adds support for setting a 
> normalization flag per {{HTableDescriptor}}, along with the server side chore 
> to do the work.
> What is lacking is to easily set this from the shell, right now you need to 
> use the Java API to modify the descriptor. This issue is to add the flag as a 
> known attribute key and/or other means to toggle this per table.
