["Jean-Marc Spaggiari (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Jean-Marc Spaggiari commented on HBASE-8170:
--------------------------------------------

Sound like the split should use numRegions - 1 instead of numRegions - 3... Have you tried with other numbers, like 4 regions or more? Are you going to provide a patch?

> createTable(HTableDescriptor desc, byte [] startKey, byte [] endKey, int numRegions) (line #370) dictates that you must specify a minimum of three regions, however is not able to handle being fed a value three. This is a result of line #379 where it attempts to create the key splits, and calls Bytes.Split with a value of 0 for the third parameter. createTable should instead just create a byte[][] with the startKey and endKey in this scenario.
