Liu Shaohui created HBASE-12451: ----------------------------------- Summary: IncreasingToUpperBoundRegionSplitPolicy may cause unnecessary region split in rolling update of cluster Key: HBASE-12451 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12451 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Liu Shaohui Assignee: Liu Shaohui Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.0.0
Currently IncreasingToUpperBoundRegionSplitPolicy is the default region split policy. In this policy, split size is the number of regions that are on this server that all are of the same table, cubed, times 2x the region flush size. But when unloading regions of a regionserver in a cluster using region_mover.rb, the number of regions that are on this server that all are of the same table will decrease, and the split size will decrease too, which may cause the left region split in the regionsever. Region Splits also happens when loading regions of a regionserver in a cluster. A improvment may set a minmum split size in IncreasingToUpperBoundRegionSplitPolicy Suggestions are welcomed.
