Paul Cavallaro updated HBASE-6503:
----------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
Adding a small patch for the documentation. Only other place I could find with
the same wrong documentation is here: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/Shell
But it looks like that should just be a print out of the shell.

> HBase Shell help documentation for the drop command says:
> "If table has more than one region, run a major compaction on .META."
> According to JD this is old news:
> jdcryans: back in the days when hadoop didn't support durability it was
> possible to lose .META. data so we were force flushing .META. and major
> compacting it all the time also we used to have consistency issues that major
> compacting was solving ahhh the good old days
