Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-14824: --------------------------------------- We can't change an already released api like that. If anything we should just be moving to using encoded name everywhere. > HBaseAdmin.mergeRegions should use full region names instead of encoded > region names > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-14824 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14824 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Eungsop Yoo > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-14824.patch > > > HBaseAdmin.mergeRegions() calls HBaseAdmin.getRegion() internally. > HBaseAdmin.getRegion() requires the full region name. So > MetaTableAccessor.getRegion always returns null and this causes one more meta > table scan. > {code} > Pair<HRegionInfo, ServerName> getRegion(final byte[] regionName) throws > IOException { > if (regionName == null) { > throw new IllegalArgumentException("Pass a table name or region name"); > } > Pair<HRegionInfo, ServerName> pair = > MetaTableAccessor.getRegion(connection, regionName); > if (pair == null) { > {code} > I suppose to use full region names instead of encoded region names in > HBaseAdmin.mergeRegions(). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
