Add File Count Threshold to HBCK
--------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-3319
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3319
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: util
            Reporter: Nicolas Spiegelberg
            Priority: Minor


A useful check to add to HBCK is a way to estimate the max # of files that a 
cluster should have and raise a warning/error if the file count goes above that 
threshold.   We ran into an issue this week where our ".oldlogs" folder filled 
up to 100k files because 'hbase.master.logcleaner.maxdeletedlogs" was set too 
low.  We found this because of faulty region count metric in the HTTP server 
that actually showed the file count.  Adding an HBCK check would provide an 
extra layer of detection to find leaks from new features or conservatively 
configured cleanup thresholds.
