info:regioninfo in .META.

Hi all,

In the .META. table what does the column info:regioninfo store for a
particular table in hbase?
I did the "scan '.META.'" from shell and found the out to be very messy. I
couldn't get a clear idea from that output ..
Can anyone explain me ?

Thanks

Schema for the .META. catalog table.

Its ruby-style map output. Maybe widening the output will help?

./bin/hbase shell --format-width=300
