Seth Ladd commented on HBASE-1961:
----------------------------------
Also, there's a bit of inconsistency.
~/Code/hbase/trunk/src/contrib/ec2 : bin/hbase-ec2
Usage: hbase-ec2 COMMAND
where COMMAND is one of:
list list all running HBase EC2 clusters
launch-cluster <name> <slaves> <zoos> launch a HBase cluster
But the README says:
4) ./bin/hbase-ec2 launch-cluster <name> <nr-zoos> <nr-slaves>, e.g
./bin/hbase-ec2 launch-cluster testcluster 3 3
Notice that they disagree with order of command line arguments.
Reading the code, it looks like the correct order is nr-slaves and then nr-zoos

> Key: HBASE-1961
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1961
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Environment: Amazon AWS EC2
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Assignee: Andrew Purtell
> Priority: Minor
>
> Attached tarball is a clone of the Hadoop EC2 scripts, modified significantly
> to start up a HBase storage only cluster on top of HDFS backed by instance
> storage.
> Tested with the HBase 0.20 branch but should work with trunk also. Only the
> AMI create and launch scripts are tested. Will bring up a functioning HBase
> cluster.
> Do "create-hbase-image c1.xlarge" to create an x86_64 AMI, or
> "create-hbase-image c1.medium" to create an i386 AMI. Public Hadoop/HBase
> 0.20.1 AMIs are available:
> i386: ami-c644a7af
> x86_64: ami-f244a79b
> launch-hbase-cluster brings up the cluster: First, a small dedicated ZK
> quorum, specifiable in size, default of 3. Then, the DFS namenode (formatting
> on first boot) and one datanode and the HBase master. Then, a specifiable
> number of slaves, instances running DFS datanodes and HBase region servers.
> For example:
> {noformat}
> launch-hbase-cluster testcluster 100 5
> {noformat}
> would bring up a cluster with 100 slaves supported by a 5 node ZK ensemble.
> We must colocate a datanode with the namenode because currently the master
> won't tolerate a brand new DFS with only namenode and no datanodes up yet.
> See HBASE-1960. By default the launch scripts provision ZooKeeper as
> c1.medium and the HBase master and region servers as c1.xlarge. The result is
> a HBase cluster supported by a ZooKeeper ensemble. ZK ensembles are not
> dynamic, but HBase clusters can be grown by simply starting up more slaves,
> just like Hadoop.
> hbase-ec2-init-remote.sh can be trivially edited to bring up a jobtracker on
> the master node and task trackers on the slaves.
