-----------------------------------------------
@Shrijeet
{code}
if (isRegionName(tableNameOrRegionName)) {
Pair<HRegionInfo, HServerAddress> pair =
MetaReader.getRegion(ct, tableNameOrRegionName);
if (pair == null || pair.getSecond() == null) {
LOG.info("No server in .META. for " +
Bytes.toStringBinary(tableNameOrRegionName) + "; pair=" + pair);
{code}
The MetaReader.getRegion should return null pair if a wrong table name is
provided. Can't we throw exception there? May be am missing something.
> Major compaction on non existing table does not throw error
