-----------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
Stale
> Command line switch to specify the HBaseMaster to connect to
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-2855
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2855
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: shell
> Reporter: fnord 999
> Priority: Minor
>
> The HBase Shell wiki page http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/Shell states
> that there is a command line switch {{--master=MASTER}} to specify a remote
> hbase master to connect to. This command line option does, however, not
> exist. Instead, in order to connect to a remote cluster, the user has to
> overwrite the shell variable {{$HBASE_CONFIG_DIR}} with the path to the
> remote cluster's configuration files that have to be locally available.
> A command line switch would be better suited for this, since the
> user/developer then would not have to write a XML config script.
