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 +region ?
