Thanks for this information. Seeing as I am using Phoenix 4.2, what is the safe 
and approved sequence of steps to drop this table and recreate it as you 
mention? Additionally, how do we ensure we don’t lose sequence data?

Since Phoenix 4.5.x default has been changed for phoenix.sequence.saltBuckets 
to not split sequence table. See 
this<https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=phoenix.git;a=blobdiff;f=phoenix-core/src/main/java/org/apache/phoenix/query/QueryServicesOptions.java;h=79776e7f688fc700275d0502e31646afe2bbcb1e;hp=4e8879b1b7a6358db2c1f9ccb4fa169394fec721;hb=18e52cc4ce2384bdc7a9c72d63901058e40f04ae;hpb=b82c5cbccdf4eb944238e69a514841be361bfb6d>
 commit. For older versions you can drop sequence table and reconnect with 
setting client side phoenix.sequence.saltBuckets property.

Hi

By default SYSTEM.SEQUENCE is installed with 256 regions. In an environment 
where you don’t have a large number of tables and regions (yet), the end result 
of this seems to be that with hbase balance_switch=true, you end up with a lot 
of region servers with nothing but empty SYSTEM.SEQUENCE regions on them. That 
mans inefficient use of our cluster.

Have there been any best practices developed as to how to deal with this 
situation?
