Mubarak Seyed commented on HBASE-4991:
--------------------------------------
bq. So, you can only do one region at a time? Why would it be hard doing
multiple given you are tracking? Or is it that it makes the tracking yet more
complicated?
As long as start/end keys are in region(s) boundary, we can do multiple
regions, each region's encoded name will be added under
_<zookeeper.znode.parent>/delete-region_ as one znode.
For example, we have regions R1, R2, R3 and R4, what i meant was if startKey is
startKey of R1, spans across R2, R3 and endKey is some value other than endKey
of R4 then we will error out an entire task. I believe 4th point in my previous
comment at 23/Feb/12 02:43 needs to be removed as 3rd point covers well. Sorry
for the confusion.
