10:15 < mgmuscari> may i suggest a note in the quickstart guide
10:16 < mgmuscari> something like "For information on configuring your HBase
client to connect to a remote master, see here"
...
10:19 < mgmuscari> my particular use case here was
10:19 < mgmuscari> we have a hadoop cluster already
10:19 < mgmuscari> and someone installed hbase on it
10:20 < mgmuscari> so my goal was to immediately connect to the distributed
cluster after downloading the hbase distributable
10:20 < mgmuscari> it didn't occur to me that chapter 2 would be relevant to
configuring the client
{quote}
Currently the client configurations is placed after we list all the
hbase-site.xml possible configurations like some second class citizen. Maybe it
would be better to move it after "2.2.3. Running and Confirming Your
Installation" since that's the next logical step.
Chapter 4, "The Apache HBase Shell", should also link to the client configs
since you might want to run it remotely.
