Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Hadoop Wiki" for change notification.
The "Hbase/RollingRestart" page has been changed by DougMeil: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/RollingRestart?action=diff&rev1=3&rev2=4 Comment: marking page as obsolete (replaced by hbase book) + This page is OBSOLETE. Replaced by http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#decommission + If you want to upgrade between point versions -- e.g. from 0.20.0 to 0.20.1 -- of HBase or change configurations WITHOUT bringing down your whole cluster -- i.e. you want to keep serving through the upgrade -- follow the below '''Rolling Restart''' receipe. This feature is available in 0.20.0 HBase. In the below, you will take down one or more servers at a time, upgrade or change their configuration, and then bring the servers back on line afterward. Ideally, you'd do the upgrade a server-at-a-time to minimize region churn but if your cluster large, you can upgrade a few on each iteration. Just be sure that the number of servers you drop is not of a proportion as to render your serving cluster a mortal blow.
