• Type: Bug
• Status: Resolved
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Fix Version/s: 3.0.0-alpha-1
• Component/s: Balancer, build, Region Assignment
• Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
• Release Note: Created a new hbase-balancer module for placing the balancer related code. Now only a few classes and tests can be moved to this module since we make use of HMaster a lot in the balancer related code.

Description

Open an issue here. After we merge hbase-rsgroup back to hbase-server, the hbase-server even makes findbugs OOM...

So I think we should try to move out classes to make the module smaller...
