major_compact '.META.' has no effect ------------------------------------ Key: HBASE-4543 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4543 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Amitanand Aiyer Priority: Minor
major_compact '.META.' has no effect, although major_compact 'any_other_table' works fine from the shell. The issue is that getTableRegions() in HMaster.java only works if the tableName given is a "normal" table. The methodology (using a MetaScanner to look through the .META. table for the tableName) does not work if the tableName is .META. The fix modifies getTableRegions() to check if the tableName is .META.; and if so, handle it accordingly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
