Add a max number of regions per regionserver limit
--------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-5101
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5101
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: regionserver
Affects Versions: 0.92.0
Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
In a testing environment, a cluster got to a state with more than 1500 regions
per region server, and essentially because stuck and unavailable. We could add
a limit to the number of regions that a region server can serve to prevent this
from happening. This looks like it could be implemented in the core or as a
coprocessor.
