Add internal status monitoring to RegionServer ----------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1964 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1964 Project: Hadoop HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: client Affects Versions: 0.20.1 Reporter: elsif When a hadoop/hbase cluster is under heavy load it will inevitably reach a tipping point where data is lost or corrupted. A graceful method is needed to put the cluster into safe mode until more resources can be added or the load on the cluster has been reduced. St.Ack has suggested the following short-term task: "Meantime, it should be possible to have a cron run a script that checks cluster resources from time-to-time -- e.g. how full hdfs is, how much each regionserver is carrying -- and when it determines the needle is in the red, flip the cluster to be read-only." -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
