Some quick answers to the questions. Will follow up later today with more details.
1) the test nodes were 8 cpu machines. 2) region server log does report ulimit of 64k. Mon Jan 25 17:41:22 PST 2010 Starting regionserver on titantest013.ash1.facebook.com ulimit -n 65535 2010-01-25 17:41:23,605 INFO org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer: vmInputArguments=[-Xmx12000m, -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError, -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC, -XX:+CMSIncrementalMode, -Dhbase.log.dir=/usr/local/hadoop/logs/HBASE-kannan1, -Dhbase.log.file=hbase-hadoop-regionserver-tit\ antest013.ash1.facebook.com.log, -Dhbase.home.dir=/usr/local/hadoop/HBASE-kannan1/bin/.., -Dhbase.id.str=hadoop, -Dhbase.root.logger=INFO,DRFA, -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/hadoop/HBASE-kannan1/bin/../lib/native/Linux-amd64-64] 3) An aside. Still using -XX:+CMSIncrementalMode. But I recall reading that for machines with more than 2 cores, the recommendation is to not use the incremental mode. -----Original Message----- From: saint....@gmail.com [mailto:saint....@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Stack Sent: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 8:32 AM To: hbase-dev@hadoop.apache.org Subject: Re: scanner lease expired/region server shutdown This is suspicious. Make sure that second line in master or regionserver log where it prints out ulimit for the process has 64k (and not 1024). You may not have set it for the DN user or setting it on your linux may be ornery (See http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/Troubleshooting#A6 for note about red hat based systems have upper bound for system, or here, where an interesting issue around kernel limits: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/FAQ#A6).
