Jim Kellerman commented on HADOOP-2440:
---------------------------------------
Would it make sense to write the HRegionInfo into a file in the HRegion
directory?
If we were just scanning the disk, it would make it easier to figure out what
region was in the HRegion directory.
Maybe not, because then we'd have to deal with splits.
How about writing the region name to a file in the region directory?
Also probably not since it is hard to decode a region name.
The goal here is be able to recover the meta table if it is corrupted.
Similarly recovering the root region from the meta region(s) if the root region
is corrupted.
