Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Hadoop Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by WesChow: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/10Minutes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Move the download to wherever you want to run hbase from, say to {{{~/hbase}}} 1. If running a remote HDFS that you want hbase to connnect to, edit {{{conf/hbase-site.xml}}} and add a property for {{{hbase.rootdir}}}. Set it to {{{hdfs://NAMENODE_HOST:NAMENODE_PORT/HBASE_ROOTDIR}}}. For example, {{{hdfs://localhost:9000/hbase}}}. Otherwise, use the default: {{{file:///tmp/hbase-${user.home}/hbase}}} UNLESS you are running on windows (TODO: Restore what you do here when on windows -- St.Ack). 1. Edit {{{conf/hbase-env.sh}}} and define {{{JAVA_HOME}}} + 1. Make sure that you can log into {{{localhost}}} without a password (see [http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/quickstart.html Hadoop Quick Start], "Setup passphraseless ssh"). ''Test this out first!'' New versions of ssh require accepting a new foreign host key ''before'' logging in, even if the host is configured with authorized keys. 1. Start hbase with ~/hbase/bin/start-hbase.sh (hbase logs are viewable in ~/hbase/logs by default) 1. Enter hbase shell by running ~/hbase/bin/hbase shell; type 'help<ENTER>' to see shell help 1. Have fun with hbase
