Fixup script that scans .META., report holes if any and then finds dropped
regions in fs if they are present (loading them if asked)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-2526
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2526
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Task
Components: scripts
Reporter: stack
I was just at a site that was getting a WRE. Looking at meta, was plain that a
region was missing from .META. The install was 0.20.3 (0.20.4 should fix the
issue seen but...). Getting things back online involved digging in logs to
find info on missing region, what its encoded name was, and then doing a hack
version of add_table.rb to add back the dropped region.
A script that could spin through meta could easily find holes. That'd be a
help. Subsequent, the script could go looking in fs for the missing region.
If present, it could even add back the missing region. This is subtask of
hbase-7.
