-----------------------------------

             Summary: Normalizer switch in configuration is not used
                 Key: HBASE-15098
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15098
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
            Reporter: Lars George
             Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.2.0, 1.2.1


The newly added global switch to enable the new normalizer functionality is 
never used apparently, meaning it is always on. The {{hbase-default.xml}} has 
this:

{noformat}
  <property>
    <name>hbase.normalizer.enabled</name>
    <value>false</value>
    <description>If set to true, Master will try to keep region size
      within each table approximately the same.</description>
  </property>
{noformat}

But only a test class uses it to set the switch to "true". We should implement 
a proper {{if}} statement that checks this value and properly disables the 
feature cluster wide if not wanted.
