Francis Liu commented on HBASE-12233: ------------------------------------- {quote}New clients would look for a new root znode. It'd point to a root table, a table that would never split. It'd have the list of meta regions as it did in the past. We'd try and avoid mistakes of the past regards stuff like key scheme and wacky comparator to interpret it. We'd not disturb the current meta znodes. {quote} Oh and we used the original root comparators. Would be interested to know what you meant by using a different key scheme. > Bring back root table > --------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12233 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12233 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Virag Kothari > Assignee: Virag Kothari > Priority: Major > Attachments: HBASE-12233.patch > > > First step towards splitting meta. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
