Jim Kellerman updated HADOOP-1528: ---------------------------------- Status: In Progress (was: Patch Available) Hudson never even ran test-contrib The first test run had the following failures: [junit] Running org.apache.hadoop.dfs.TestDFSUpgrade [junit] Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Time elapsed: 8.789 sec [junit] Running org.apache.hadoop.fs.TestCopyFiles [junit] Tests run: 4, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Time elapsed: 51.907 sec and the second run hung: [junit] Running org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestMiniMRWithDFS [junit] Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Time elapsed: 733.912 sec and this patch only effects test-contrib for hbase > HClient for multiple tables > --------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1528 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Task > Components: contrib/hbase > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: James Kennedy > Assignee: Jim Kellerman > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: HConnection.patch, patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, > patch.txt, patch.txt > > > I have an app that needs to access multiple HBase tables concurrently. The > current HClient can only have one table open at a time even though it caches > region servers of multiple tables as they are looked up. > This means that my application layer must open multiple HClients, one per > table, perhaps caching those HClients in a pool to reuse them (and their > cached table data) as appropriate. > or > Shall I write an HClient patch that makes the HClient multi-table > thread-safe? > Jim's suggestion is to implement an HClient singleton (call it > HClientManager?) that does the actual caching/resync of root/meta regions. > Individual HClients will still be one table, one update row at a time but > will rely on the singleton for the cached table info. We want HClients to be > created and disposed as fast as possible with a minimum of meta lookups. > Jim, what about non-root/meta regions, shouldn't they be cached and refreshed > via the singleton also? It may still be possible that a region split/resync > will occur during on HClient session so does the HClientManager need to be > able to notify the corresponding HClients in that event? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
