Looking further up in the logs (about 20 minutes prior in the logs when errors first started happening), I noticed the following.
btw, ulimit -a shows that I have "open files" set to 64k.

Yes, it is a 5 node, setup. 1 Name Node/4 Data Nodes. Of the 4 DN, one is running the HBase Master, and the other three are running region servers. ZK is on all the same 5 nodes.

What was going on at that time? A fat GC in the regionserver or over in a Datanode? You can enable GC logging uncommenting stuff in the hbase-env.sh. Feed the GC log to https://gchisto.dev.java.net/ (suggested by the zookeeper lads). Its good for finding the long pauses. We should find the logs around the long GC pause. Its probably a failed promotion that brought on the stop-the-world GC. Or your HDFS was struggling? I was going to say that the PE puts the worse kind of loading on the hbase cache -- nothing sticks around -- but looking at your numbers below, cache seems to be working pretty well. > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,416 DEBUG org.apache.hadoop.hbase.io.hfile.LruBlockCache: > Cache Stats: Sizes: Total=1815.4441MB (1903631104), Free=581.23096MB > (609464832),\ > Max=2396.675MB (2513095936), Counts: Blocks=28216, Access=10904689, > Hit=9313612, Miss=1591077, Evictions=110, Evicted=414336, Ratios: Hit > Ratio=85.40924191474\ > 915%, Miss Ratio=14.590759575366974%, Evicted/Run=3766.69091796875 > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,417 WARN org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HLog: IPC > Server handler 52 on 60020 took 65195ms appending an edit to hlog; > editcount=27879 > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,417 WARN org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HLog: IPC > Server handler 75 on 60020 took 65195ms appending an edit to hlog; > editcount=27880 > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,417 INFO > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer: Scanner > -5220035164735014996 lease expired > > This was followed by: > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,636 WARN org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Exception > closing session 0x12652c620520001 to > sun.nio.ch.selectionkeyi...@788ab708<mailto:sun.nio.ch.selectionkeyi...@788ab708> > java.io.IOException: TIMED OUT This is the zk timeout. > > And also errors like: > 2010-01-25 11:33:39,692 ERROR > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer: > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.UnknownScannerException: Name: -5220035164735014996 > These will happen after the above.

Above kinda thing is what the master rewrite is about moving state transitions up to zk so atomic over cluster moving regions through transitions rather than as here, a multi-row update might not all go through as things currently work.
