Scan a table; pass table name and optionally a dictionary of scanner
specifications. Scanner specifications may include one or more of
the following: LIMIT, STARTROW, STOPROW, TIMESTAMP, or COLUMNS. If
no columns are specified, all columns will be scanned. To scan all
members of a column family, leave the qualifier empty as in
'col_family:'. Examples:
hbase> scan '.META.'
hbase> scan '.META.', {COLUMNS => 'info:regioninfo'}
hbase> scan 't1', {COLUMNS => ['c1', 'c2'], LIMIT => 10, STARTROW => 'xyz'}
For experts, there is an additional option -- CACHE_BLOCKS -- which
switches block caching for the scanner on (true) or off (false). By
default it is enabled. Examples:
hbase> scan 't1', {COLUMNS => ['c1', 'c2'], CACHE_BLOCKS => false}
