Review request for hbase, Michael Stack and Lars Hofhansl.


Summary (updated)
-------

This is an idea that Ryan and I have been kicking around on and off for a while 
now.

If regionnames were made of tablename+endrow instead of tablename+startrow, 
then in the metatables, doing a search for the region that contains the wanted 
row, we'd just have to open a scanner using passed row and the first row found 
by the scan would be that of the region we need (If offlined parent, we'd have 
to scan to the next row).

If we redid the meta tables in this format, we'd be using an access that is 
natural to hbase, a scan as opposed to the perverse, expensive 
getClosestRowBefore we currently have that has to walk backward in meta finding 
a containing region.

This issue is about changing the way we name regions.

If we were using scans, prewarming client cache would be near costless (as 
opposed to what we'll currently have to do which is first a getClosestRowBefore 
and then a scan from the closestrowbefore forward).

Converting to the new method, we'd have to run a migration on startup changing 
the content in meta.

Up to this, the randomid component of a region name has been the timestamp of 
region creation. HBASE-2531 "32-bit encoding of regionnames waaaaaaayyyyy too 
susceptible to hash clashes" proposes changing the randomid so that it contains 
actual name of the directory in the filesystem that hosts the region. If we had 
this in place, I think it would help with the migration to this new way of 
doing the meta because as is, the region name in fs is a hash of regionname... 
changing the format of the regionname would mean we generate a different 
hash... so we'd need hbase-2531 to be in place before we could do this change.


This addresses bug HBASE-2600.

Testing
-------

Unit tests started table. 


Tests in error: 
  org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.TestMetaMigrationRemovingHTD: Table 'TestTable 
we searched for the StartKey: TestTable ,, startKey lastChar's int value: 32 
with the stopKey: TestTable#,, stopRow lastChar's int value: 35 with 
parentTable:.META.

I need to know how to update/recreate the tar ball which is the source for that 
test.


Thanks,

Alex
