stack commented on HBASE-20654:
-------------------------------

bq.  If expose these regions state info to jxm is very useful.

Please say more than this. Counts of RITs makes sense as a metric and to expose 
as JMX or even stuff like longest RIT. I am  having trouble understanding why 
we need explicit names exposed in metrics. If a problem I'd imagine an operator 
will notice it via review of RIT metric counts and when they go to deal with a 
specific RIT, they'll figure exact region by reading WAL/log or shell output as 
per Sean above or just ask hbck for list of RIT names.

Correct me if I'm wrong. I do not see why our metrics need to be fattened up 
with long lists of region names. If a cluster of 1M regions on 1K nodes, at 
startup, generating such a metrics few will be crippling.

> Currently only the count of regions in transition is exposed thru JMX.
> Here is a sample snippet of the /jmx output:
> {code}
> {
>   "beans" : [ {
> ...
>   }, {
>     "name" : "Hadoop:service=HBase,name=Master,sub=AssignmentManager",
>     "modelerType" : "Master,sub=AssignmentManager",
>     "tag.Context" : "master",
> ...
>     "ritCount" : 3
> {code}
> It would be desirable to expose region name, state for the regions in 
> transition as well.
> We can place configurable upper bound on the number of entries returned in 
> case there're a lot of regions in transition.
