ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-7928:
-----------------------------------------------
So the META_COMPARATOR is not able to find the row that starts with the start
row specified.
We try to create a DELETE_FAMILY row with the specified row. So that the scan
starts from there and all other rows are less than that.
In case of META it does not happen. So let me come up with a test case
tomorrow.
> Scanning .META. with startRow and/or stopRow is not giving proper results

> {code}
> try {
> HTable metaTable = new HTable(config, Bytes.toBytes(".META."));

> This code will not return any result even if there is 10 tables with names
> starting with "d" to "w", including one table called "entry". If you comment
> the setStopRow you will get results, but will still get rows starting with
> "d" even if setStartRow is set to "e".
> Same code using with a user table is working fine.
> Facing the same issue with the shell.
> scan '.META.' , {STARTROW => 'e', LIMIT => 10} is returning rows starting by
> "d".
> scan '.META.' , {STARTROW => 'e', STOPROW => 'v', LIMIT => 10} is not
> returning anything.
