Viraj Jasani commented on PHOENIX-6104:
---------------------------------------
{quote}If I can create a pre-split table with 100 empty regions, why can't
split an existing table so that some empty or very small regions are created ?

Definitely, in fact, I have the same question. Let me see if I can find some
Jira around this or get to know some historical reason behind not allowing
splitting of small tables (specifically after HBase 2.0+, I think for HBase
1.x, it could be working, but this is something I was testing sometime back so
not very sure).
Would you like to raise this question on dev mailing list btw? That way also,
we will get some idea. In the meanwhile let me try searching historical Jiras.

> The failure is in the test preparation code, where we split the system
