Michael Stack commented on HBASE-23562:
---------------------------------------
I like the way the differentiation is teased out here... the difference between
RegionNormalizer and this new tool. Would be good to get up into release note
I'd say along w/ some notes on this nice new addition. Thanks.
> [operator tools] Add a RegionsMerge tool that allows for merging multiple
> adjacent regions until a desired number of regions is reached.

> There's been a few occasions where different customers had faced the need to
> reduce the number of regions for specific tables, either due to mistakenly
> pre-split or after a purge in table data. This jira is for adding a simple
> merge tool that takes the table name and the desired number of regions, then
> perform region merges until the total number of regions for the given table
> reached the passed valued.
