It is the full region name - something like this:
TestTable,262335,1300510101703.372a66d40705a4f2338b0219767602d3.
If you go to the master web UI and click on the table name and you
will see all the regions for that table. It is the string under Table
Regions / Name column.
The other thing
The command is `split table or region row`
How to find what the region row is? I tried the ones shown in node:60030
webpage. Does not work.

Please define does not work, does it give you an error message or it
just doesn't split? If latter, maybe the split was rejected, depending
on the file layout. You would find such message in the region server
log.

It outputs it completed in 1.234 seconds, but nothing happens.
What ever I type as region_name, it outputs completed

hbase(main):001:0 help 'split'
Split table or pass a region row to split individual region
I tried
entering the region name as seen in nodeName:60030
When I entered the row key, it did nothing. Even the logs weren't helpful.
When I typed arbitrary asdf as region row it started splitting.
To clarify, my question was what is defined as a region row, is it the
first key of the region? the last key? any key in the region? or a combo of
table name
