stack commented on HBASE-3866:
------------------------------
I don't think it should go into the code base as is as per above. These
scripts tend to rot.
You want to close it? If closed, the script is available still if someone
wants it. Its also available still if we want to refactor the script into an
improved balancer?
> Script to add regions gradually to a new regionserver.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3866
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: scripts
> Affects Versions: 0.90.2
> Reporter: Aravind Gottipati
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: 3866-max-regions-per-iteration.patch, slow_balancer.rb,
> slow_balancer.rb

>
> When a new region server is brought online, the current balancer kicks off a
> whole bunch of region moves and causes a lot of regions to be un-available
> right away. A slower balancer that gradually balances the cluster is
> probably a good script to have. I have an initial version that mooches off
> the region_mover script to do this.
