Jim Kellerman updated HADOOP-2451: ---------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Tests passed. Committed. > [hbase] End key is incorrectly assigned in many region splits > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2451 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2451 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: contrib/hbase > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Jim Kellerman > Assignee: Jim Kellerman > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: patch.txt > > > When a region is split, the new child region for the upper half of the key > range is always assigned as null (meaning end of table). If splits only > happen at the end of the table, this is harmless. However under a random > write load, an inner region is just as likely to split. > This would explain why we have seen cases where after a split, there are > multiple regions whose end key is the end of the table (null) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
