== Migration in General ==

In general, performing a HBase migration will consist of the following steps:

 * Shut down the old instance of HBase.
 * If necessary, upgrade the underlying version of Hadoop to the version 
required by the new instance of HBase.  Refer to the 
[http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hadoop%20Upgrade Hadoop Upgrade] page.
 * Download and configure the new instance of HBase.  Make sure you configure 
the hbase.rootdir of the new instance to be the same as that from the old 
instance.
 * From the new instance of HBase, perform the HBase migration.  See the 
version-specific notes below for more specific information on this process.
 * Start the new instance of HBase.

== Version-Specific Migration Notes ==

=== From 0.1.x to 0.2.x ===

HBase 0.1 depends on Hadoop 0.16.  HBase 0.2 depends on Hadoop 0.17, and as 
such you will need to upgrade your version of Hadoop as part of this migration.

The actual migration command to be executed by the new HBase 0.2 instance is:

{$HBASE_HOME}/bin/hbase migrate update
