Thanks! I checked the master log and found some info like this: " timestamp ***, INFO org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMaster: balance hri=***, src=***, dst=*** "
So I assume the balancer is running. There's no failing info there, but I didn't see the regions were actually balanced as the log states. Is it possible that I have been keeping dumping data into the table thus the balancing won't work?
