[jira] Commented: (HBASE-1621) merge tool should work on online cluster, but disabled table

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1621?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12879843#action_12879843 ] 

stack commented on HBASE-1621:
------------------------------

Or rather, we shouldn't have to take the table offline at all... just close regions to be merged, merge them while all else is online, then update meta.

> taking down the entire cluster to merge 2 regions is a pain, i dont see why the table or regions specifically couldnt be taken offline, then merged then brought back up.
> this might need a new API to the regionservers so they can take direction from not just the master.
