> Key: HBASE-4543
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4543
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.89.20100621, 0.89.20100924
> Reporter: Amitanand Aiyer
> Assignee: Amitanand Aiyer
> Priority: Minor

>
> major_compact '.META.' has no effect, although major_compact
> 'any_other_table' works fine from the shell.
> This issue seems to only affect 0.89. The apache-trunk seems to handle this
> case properly.
> The issue is that getTableRegions() in HMaster.java only works if the
> tableName given is a "normal" table.
> The methodology (using a MetaScanner to look through the .META. table for the
> tableName) does not work if
> the tableName is .META.
> The fix modifies getTableRegions() to check if the tableName is .META.; and
> if so, handle it accordingly.
