.Operating System Utilities
ssh::
HBase uses the Secure Shell (ssh) command and utilities extensively to
communicate between cluster nodes. Each server in the cluster must be running
`ssh` so that the Hadoop and HBase daemons can be managed. You must be able to
connect to all nodes via SSH, including the local node, from the Master as well
as any backup Master, using a shared key rather than a password. You can see
the basic methodology for such a set-up in Linux or Unix systems at
"<<passwordless.ssh.quickstart>>". If [...]
DNS::
- HBase uses the local hostname to self-report its IP address. Both forward
and reverse DNS resolving must work in versions of HBase previous to 0.92.0.
The link:https://github.com/sujee/hadoop-dns-checker[hadoop-dns-checker] tool
can be used to verify DNS is working correctly on the cluster. The project
`README` file provides detailed instructions on usage.
-
-Loopback IP::
- Prior to hbase-0.96.0, HBase only used the IP address `127.0.0.1` to refer
to `localhost`, and this could not be configured.
- See <<loopback.ip,Loopback IP>> for more details.
+ HBase uses the local hostname to self-report its IP address.
NTP::
The clocks on cluster nodes should be synchronized. A small amount of
variation is acceptable, but larger amounts of skew can cause erratic and
unexpected behavior. Time synchronization is one of the first things to check
if you see unexplained problems in your cluster. It is recommended that you run
a Network Time Protocol (NTP) service, or another time-synchronization
mechanism, on your cluster, and that all nodes look to the same service for
time synchronization. See the link:http:/ [...]

too low can cause OutOfMemoryError exceptions. See Jack Levin's major HDFS

+.Hadoop Pre-2.6.1 and JDK 1.8 Kerberos
+[TIP]
====
-Because HBase depends on Hadoop, it bundles an instance of the Hadoop jar
under its _lib_ directory.
-The bundled jar is ONLY for use in standalone mode.
-In distributed mode, it is _critical_ that the version of Hadoop that is out
on your cluster match what is under HBase.
-Replace the hadoop jar found in the HBase lib directory with the hadoop jar
you are running on your cluster to avoid version mismatch issues.
-Make sure you replace the jar in HBase everywhere on your cluster.
-Hadoop version mismatch issues have various manifestations but often all looks
like its hung up.
+When using pre-2.6.1 Hadoop versions and JDK 1.8 in a Kerberos environment,
HBase server can fail
+and abort due to Kerberos keytab relogin error. Late version of JDK 1.7
(1.7.0_80) has the problem too.
+Refer to link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10786[HADOOP-10786]
for additional details.
+Consider upgrading to Hadoop 2.6.1+ in this case.

+Hadoop distributions that include the Application Timeline Service feature may
cause unexpected versions of HBase classes to be present in the application
classpath. Users planning on running MapReduce applications with HBase should
make sure that link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-7190[YARN-7190]

-Apache HBase will run on any Hadoop 0.20.x that incorporates Hadoop security
features as long as you do as suggested above and replace the Hadoop jar that
ships with HBase with the secure version.
-If you want to read more about how to setup Secure HBase, see
<<hbase.secure.configuration,hbase.secure.configuration>>.
+.Hadoop 3.1.0 Release
+[TIP]
+====
+The Hadoop PMC called out the 3.1.0 release as not stable / production ready.
As such, HBase expressly advises downstream users to avoid running on top of
this release. For reference, see the
link:https://s.apache.org/hadoop-3.1.0-announcement[release announcement for
Hadoop 3.1.0].
+====
+.Replace the Hadoop Bundled With HBase!
+[NOTE]
+====
+Because HBase depends on Hadoop, it bundles Hadoop jars under its _lib_
directory.
+The bundled jars are ONLY for use in standalone mode.
+In distributed mode, it is _critical_ that the version of Hadoop that is out
on your cluster match what is under HBase.
+Replace the hadoop jars found in the HBase lib directory with the equivalent
hadoop jars from the version you are running
+on your cluster to avoid version mismatch issues.
+Make sure you replace the jars under HBase across your whole cluster.
+Hadoop version mismatch issues have various manifestations. Check for mismatch
if
+HBase appears hung.

-
-.check
-The check step is run against a running 0.94 cluster. Run it from a downloaded
0.96.x binary. The check step is looking for the presence of HFile v1 files.
These are unsupported in HBase 0.96.0. To have them rewritten as HFile v2 you
must run a compaction.
-
-The check step prints stats at the end of its run (grep for `“Result:”` in the
log) printing absolute path of the tables it scanned, any HFile v1 files found,
the regions containing said files (these regions will need a major compaction),
and any corrupted files if found. A corrupt file is unreadable, and so is
undefined (neither HFile v1 nor HFile v2).

-----
-
-In the above sample output, there are two HFile v1 files in two regions, and
one corrupt file. Corrupt files should probably be removed. The regions that
have HFile v1s need to be major compacted. To major compact, start up the hbase
shell and review how to compact an individual region. After the major
compaction is done, rerun the check step and the HFile v1 files should be gone,
replaced by HFile v2 instances.
-
-By default, the check step scans the HBase root directory (defined as
`hbase.rootdir` in the configuration). To scan a specific directory only, pass
the `-dir` option.
-[source,bash]
-----
-$ bin/hbase upgrade -check -dir /myHBase/testTable
-----
-The above command would detect HFile v1 files in the _/myHBase/testTable_
directory.
-
-Once the check step reports all the HFile v1 files have been rewritten, it is
safe to proceed with the upgrade.
-
-.execute
-After the _check_ step shows the cluster is free of HFile v1, it is safe to
proceed with the upgrade. Next is the _execute_ step. You must *SHUTDOWN YOUR
0.94.x CLUSTER* before you can run the execute step. The execute step will not
run if it detects running HBase masters or RegionServers.
-
-[NOTE]
-====
-HDFS and ZooKeeper should be up and running during the upgrade process. If
zookeeper is managed by HBase, then you can start zookeeper so it is available
to the upgrade by running
-[source,bash]
-----
-$ ./hbase/bin/hbase-daemon.sh start zookeeper
-----
-====
-
-The execute upgrade step is made of three substeps.
-
-* Namespaces: HBase 0.96.0 has support for namespaces. The upgrade needs to
reorder directories in the filesystem for namespaces to work.
+[[upgrade2.0]]
+=== Upgrading to 2.x
-* ZNodes: All znodes are purged so that new ones can be written in their place
using a new protobuf'ed format and a few are migrated in place: e.g.
replication and table state znodes
-
-* WAL Log Splitting: If the 0.94.x cluster shutdown was not clean, we'll split
WAL logs as part of migration before we startup on 0.96.0. This WAL splitting
runs slower than the native distributed WAL splitting because it is all inside
the single upgrade process (so try and get a clean shutdown of the 0.94.0
cluster if you can).
-
-To run the _execute_ step, make sure that first you have copied HBase 0.96.0
binaries everywhere under servers and under clients. Make sure the 0.94.0
cluster is down. Then do as follows:
-[source,bash]

-==== Upgrading `META` to use Protocol Buffers (Protobuf)
-
-When you upgrade from versions prior to 0.96, `META` needs to be converted to
use protocol buffers. This is controlled by the configuration option
`hbase.MetaMigrationConvertingToPB`, which is set to `true` by default.
Therefore, by default, no action is required on your part.
-
-The migration is a one-time event. However, every time your cluster starts,
`META` is scanned to ensure that it does not need to be converted. If you have
a very large number of regions, this scan can take a long time. Starting in
0.98.5, you can set `hbase.MetaMigrationConvertingToPB` to `false` in
_hbase-site.xml_, to disable this start-up scan. This should be considered an
expert-level setting.

-=== Upgrading from 0.90.x to 0.92.x
-==== Upgrade Guide
-You will find that 0.92.0 runs a little differently to 0.90.x releases. Here
are a few things to watch out for upgrading from 0.90.x to 0.92.0.
-
-.tl:dr
-[NOTE]
-====
-These are the important things to know before upgrading.
-. Once you upgrade, you can’t go back.
-
-. MSLAB is on by default. Watch that heap usage if you have a lot of regions.
-
-. Distributed Log Splitting is on by default. It should make RegionServer
failover faster.
-
-. There’s a separate tarball for security.
-
-. If `-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize` is set in your _hbase-env.sh_, it’s going to
enable the experimental off-heap cache (You may not want this).
-====
-
-.You can’t go back!
-To move to 0.92.0, all you need to do is shutdown your cluster, replace your
HBase 0.90.x with HBase 0.92.0 binaries (be sure you clear out all 0.90.x
instances) and restart (You cannot do a rolling restart from 0.90.x to 0.92.x
-- you must restart). On startup, the `.META.` table content is rewritten
removing the table schema from the `info:regioninfo` column. Also, any flushes
done post first startup will write out data in the new 0.92.0 file format,
<<hfilev2>>. This means you cannot [...]
-
-.MSLAB is ON by default
-In 0.92.0, the
`<<hbase.hregion.memstore.mslab.enabled,hbase.hregion.memstore.mslab.enabled>>`
flag is set to `true` (See <<gcpause>>). In 0.90.x it was false. When it is
enabled, memstores will step allocate memory in MSLAB 2MB chunks even if the
memstore has zero or just a few small elements. This is fine usually but if you
had lots of regions per RegionServer in a 0.90.x cluster (and MSLAB was off),
you may find yourself OOME'ing on upgrade because the `thousands of regions *
number o [...]
-
-[[dls]]
-.Distributed Log Splitting is on by default
-Previous, WAL logs on crash were split by the Master alone. In 0.92.0, log
splitting is done by the cluster (See
link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/hbase-1364[HBASE-1364 [performance\]
Distributed splitting of regionserver commit logs] or see the blog post
link:http://blog.cloudera.com/blog/2012/07/hbase-log-splitting/[Apache HBase
Log Splitting]). This should cut down significantly on the amount of time it
takes splitting logs and getting regions back online again.
-
-.Memory accounting is different now
-In 0.92.0, <<hfilev2>> indices and bloom filters take up residence in the same
LRU used caching blocks that come from the filesystem. In 0.90.x, the HFile v1
indices lived outside of the LRU so they took up space even if the index was on
a ‘cold’ file, one that wasn’t being actively used. With the indices now in the
LRU, you may find you have less space for block caching. Adjust your block
cache accordingly. See the <<block.cache>> for more detail. The block size
default size has been ch [...]
-
-.On the Hadoop version to use
-Run 0.92.0 on Hadoop 1.0.x (or CDH3u3). The performance benefits are worth
making the move. Otherwise, our Hadoop prescription is as it has been; you need
an Hadoop that supports a working sync. See <<hadoop>>.
-
-If running on Hadoop 1.0.x (or CDH3u3), enable local read. See
link:http://files.meetup.com/1350427/hug_ebay_jdcryans.pdf[Practical Caching]
presentation for ruminations on the performance benefits ‘going local’ (and for
how to enable local reads).
-
-.HBase 0.92.0 ships with ZooKeeper 3.4.2
-If you can, upgrade your ZooKeeper. If you can’t, 3.4.2 clients should work
against 3.3.X ensembles (HBase makes use of 3.4.2 API).
-
-.Online alter is off by default
-In 0.92.0, we’ve added an experimental online schema alter facility (See
<<hbase.online.schema.update.enable,hbase.online.schema.update.enable>>). It's
off by default. Enable it at your own risk. Online alter and splitting tables
do not play well together so be sure your cluster quiescent using this feature
(for now).
-
-.WebUI
-The web UI has had a few additions made in 0.92.0. It now shows a list of the
regions currently transitioning, recent compactions/flushes, and a process list
of running processes (usually empty if all is well and requests are being
handled promptly). Other additions including requests by region, a debugging
servlet dump, etc.
-
-.Security tarball
-We now ship with two tarballs; secure and insecure HBase. Documentation on how
to setup a secure HBase is on the way.

-.Changes in HBase replication
-0.92.0 adds two new features: multi-slave and multi-master replication. The
way to enable this is the same as adding a new peer, so in order to have
multi-master you would just run add_peer for each cluster that acts as a master
to the other slave clusters. Collisions are handled at the timestamp level
which may or may not be what you want, this needs to be evaluated on a per use
case basis. Replication is still experimental in 0.92 and is disabled by
default, run it at your own risk.

-.RegionServer now aborts if OOME
-If an OOME, we now have the JVM kill -9 the RegionServer process so it goes
down fast. Previous, a RegionServer might stick around after incurring an OOME
limping along in some wounded state. To disable this facility, and recommend
you leave it in place, you’d need to edit the bin/hbase file. Look for the
addition of the -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError="kill -9 %p" arguments (See
link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4769[HBASE-4769 - ‘Abort
RegionServer Immediately on OOME’]).

-.HFile v2 and the “Bigger, Fewer” Tendency
-0.92.0 stores data in a new format, <<hfilev2>>. As HBase runs, it will move
all your data from HFile v1 to HFile v2 format. This auto-migration will run in
the background as flushes and compactions run. HFile v2 allows HBase run with
larger regions/files. In fact, we encourage that all HBasers going forward tend
toward Facebook axiom #1, run with larger, fewer regions. If you have lots of
regions now -- more than 100s per host -- you should look into setting your
region size up after yo [...]

-[[upgrade0.90]]
-=== Upgrading to HBase 0.90.x from 0.20.x or 0.89.x
-This version of 0.90.x HBase can be started on data written by HBase 0.20.x or
HBase 0.89.x. There is no need of a migration step. HBase 0.89.x and 0.90.x
does write out the name of region directories differently -- it names them with
a md5 hash of the region name rather than a jenkins hash -- so this means that
once started, there is no going back to HBase 0.20.x.
-
-Be sure to remove the _hbase-default.xml_ from your _conf_ directory on
upgrade. A 0.20.x version of this file will have sub-optimal configurations for
0.90.x HBase. The _hbase-default.xml_ file is now bundled into the HBase jar
and read from there. If you would like to review the content of this file, see
it in the src tree at _src/main/resources/hbase-default.xml_ or see
<<hbase_default_configurations>>.
-
-Finally, if upgrading from 0.20.x, check your .META. schema in the shell. In
the past we would recommend that users run with a 16kb MEMSTORE_FLUSHSIZE. Run
-----
-hbase> scan '-ROOT-'
-----
-in the shell. This will output the current `.META.` schema. Check
`MEMSTORE_FLUSHSIZE` size. Is it 16kb (16384)? If so, you will need to change
this (The 'normal'/default value is 64MB (67108864)). Run the script
`bin/set_meta_memstore_size.rb`. This will make the necessary edit to your
`.META.` schema. Failure to run this change will make for a slow cluster. See
link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3499[HBASE-3499 Users
upgrading to 0.90.0 need to have their .META. table upd [...]
+Please see the reference guide for the latest 2.x release for guidance on
upgrading.
