stack commented on HBASE-15073:
-------------------------------
bq. ...different opinion on usefulness...
No.
The -1 is because no case was made for why we need this feature. Usually folks
show up w/ some numbers or a graph or some reasoning as to why something is
needed. In here there is none of that; there is 'certain use cases' that go
unspecified and then when pushed, some rambling about ambari metrics server
with no timelines or measure of what is being addressed or fit criteria as to
what would make ambari-case happy.

> Currently both region split and merge actions are carried out during
> normalization for underlying table.
> However, for certain use case(s), it would be desirable to perform only one
> type of action.
> There is one boolean flag, keyed by NORMALIZATION_ENABLED_KEY, per table that
> enables normalization.
> To provide finer grained control, we have several options:
> 1. introduce another per table flag to indicate which type(s) of actions are
> allowed ("N" for disabled, "S" for split only, "M" for merge only and "MS"
> for both split and merge)
> 2. introduce another global flag to indicate which type(s) of actions are
> allowed
> 3. modify the meaning of existing flag keyed by NORMALIZATION_ENABLED_KEY so
> that it indicates type(s) of actions
