We should have an automated, reliable way to "reshape" or "balance" a table's region boundaries. This would be for tables that contain existing data. This might look like: > {noformat} > Admin#reshapeTable(TableName, int numSplits); > {noformat} > or from the shell: > {noformat} > > reshape TABLE, numSplits > {noformat} > Better still would be to have a maintenance process, similar to the existing Balancer that runs AssignmentManager on an interval, to run the above "reshape" operation on an interval. That way, the cluster will automatically self-correct toward a desirable state. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
