stack commented on HBASE-15073:
-------------------------------
-1 on this change. Revert it. It is rubbish. When a proper case is made, I'll
change my vote. I can't make sense of the above (We split because region is
big... later, because of TTL, region is empty so we merge ... but this
'increases the work'... and "I talked with an Ambari dev"..... and again
'various use cases' but none but the mangled one specified)
> Finer grained control over normalization actions for RegionNormalizer

> Currently both region split and merge actions are carried out during
> normalization for underlying table.
> However, for certain use case(s), it would be desirable to perform only one
> type of action.
> There is one boolean flag, keyed by NORMALIZATION_ENABLED_KEY, per table that
> enables normalization.
> To provide finer grained control, we have several options:
> 1. introduce another per table flag to indicate which type(s) of actions are
> allowed ("N" for disabled, "S" for split only, "M" for merge only and "MS"
> for both split and merge)
> 2. introduce another global flag to indicate which type(s) of actions are
> allowed
> 3. modify the meaning of existing flag keyed by NORMALIZATION_ENABLED_KEY so
> that it indicates type(s) of actions
