But it can only provide limited > functions: > 1. Create table with a specified region number without give any splits. > 2. Roll-Split on an exist region. > We have such user scenario: > Table was created with splits like below: > a____b____c____d____e____f____g____o > g~o is a reserved empty region. Will use it only after some days. So we don't > know the rowkey distribution currently. Will split it only when it get used. > Say, we want to split g~o with 10 new regions, likes g, g1, g2, g3, g4, > g5.......,g9, o. > I didn't find similar function has already been there. Please tell me if I am > wrong. > Hope to hear your ideas on this:) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
