Kannan Muthukkaruppan commented on HBASE-2244: ---------------------------------------------- Stack: The splitB from test1,1204765,1266581233447, namely "test1,1226169,1266609171581" was probably there. Not entirely sure. I should have cut-pasted more from the scan of .META. I just wanted to add that during this state, the client was receiving errors of the form: {code} org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.RetriesExhaustedException: Trying to contact region server 10.129.68.212:60020 for region\ test1,1204765,1266581233447, row '1232762', but failed after 10 attempts. {code} Note: key "1232762" would fall in the "splitB" range for the original test1,1204765,1266581233447. (BTW, are the JIRA time zones always in GMT? Is there a way to configure it to local timezones?) When I look at the same cluster's .META. now, the state for the related META regions is as follows: {code} test1,1204765,1266616432091 column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1266616432230, value=REGION => {NAME => 'test1, 1204765,1266616432091', STARTKEY => '1204765', ENDKEY => '1215466', ENCODED => 41 6976676, TABLE => {{NAME => 'test1', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'actions', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}} test1,1204765,1266616432091 column=info:server, timestamp=1266616433943, value=10.129.68.213:60020 test1,1204765,1266616432091 column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1266616433943, value=1266562597511 test1,1215466,1266616432091 column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1266616432232, value=REGION => {NAME => 'test1, 1215466,1266616432091', STARTKEY => '1215466', ENDKEY => '1226169', ENCODED => 40 3995950, TABLE => {{NAME => 'test1', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'actions', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}} test1,1215466,1266616432091 column=info:server, timestamp=1266616434963, value=10.129.68.213:60020 test1,1215466,1266616432091 column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1266616434963, value=1266562597511 test1,1226169,1266609171581 column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1266621116341, value=REGION => {NAME => 'test1, 1226169,1266609171581', STARTKEY => '1226169', ENDKEY => '1290703', ENCODED => 45 9318323, OFFLINE => true, SPLIT => true, TABLE => {{NAME => 'test1', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'actions', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}} test1,1226169,1266609171581 column=info:server, timestamp=1266613546335, value=10.129.68.214:60020 test1,1226169,1266609171581 column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1266613546335, value=1266562596451 test1,1226169,1266609171581 column=info:splitA, timestamp=1266621116341, value=\x00\x0512790\x00\x00\x00\x01\ x26\xE8\x80l\xCD\x1Btest1,1226169,1266621115597\x00\x071226169\x00\x00\x00\x05\x0 5test1\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x07IS_ROOT\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x0 0\x00\x07IS_META\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x01\x07\x07actions\x00\x00\x00\ x07\x00\x00\x00\x0BBLOOMFILTER\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x0BCOMPRESSION\x0 0\x00\x00\x04NONE\x00\x00\x00\x08VERSIONS\x00\x00\x00\x013\x00\x00\x00\x03TTL\x00 \x00\x00\x0A2147483647\x00\x00\x00\x09BLOCKSIZE\x00\x00\x00\x0565536\x00\x00\x00\ x09IN_MEMORY\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x0ABLOCKCACHE\x00\x00\x00\x04trueb\ xD0\x21\xBC test1,1226169,1266609171581 column=info:splitB, timestamp=1266621116341, value=\x00\x071290703\x00\x00\x00\x0 1\x26\xE8\x80l\xCD\x19test1,12790,1266621115597\x00\x0512790\x00\x00\x00\x05\x05t est1\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x07IS_ROOT\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\ x00\x07IS_META\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x01\x07\x07actions\x00\x00\x00\x0 7\x00\x00\x00\x0BBLOOMFILTER\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x0BCOMPRESSION\x00\ x00\x00\x04NONE\x00\x00\x00\x08VERSIONS\x00\x00\x00\x013\x00\x00\x00\x03TTL\x00\x 00\x00\x0A2147483647\x00\x00\x00\x09BLOCKSIZE\x00\x00\x00\x0565536\x00\x00\x00\x0 9IN_MEMORY\x00\x00\x00\x05false\x00\x00\x00\x0ABLOCKCACHE\x00\x00\x00\x04true\x5B \x7D\x1A1 test1,1226169,1266621115597 column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1266621116358, value=REGION => {NAME => 'test1, 1226169,1266621115597', STARTKEY => '1226169', ENDKEY => '12790', ENCODED => 1988 459280, TABLE => {{NAME => 'test1', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'actions', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}} test1,1226169,1266621115597 column=info:server, timestamp=1266768596714, value=10.129.68.212:60020 test1,1226169,1266621115597 column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1266768596714, value=1266768408023 test1,12790,1266621115597 column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1266621116361, value=REGION => {NAME => 'test1, 12790,1266621115597', STARTKEY => '12790', ENDKEY => '1290703', ENCODED => 179081 1553, TABLE => {{NAME => 'test1', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'actions', VERSIONS => '3 ', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}} test1,12790,1266621115597 column=info:server, timestamp=1266768555610, value=10.129.68.214:60020 test1,12790,1266621115597 column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1266768555610, value=1266768408015 {code} Note: that both the daughters of the parent region test1,1226169,1266609171581 have been installed. But the offlined parent row itself (for test1,1226169,1266609171581) is still present. Not sure if it is in these situations that the client starts seeing errors... but curious why the offline parent row hasn't been reaped yet from .META. I repro'ed a similar problem yesterday. Might have more detailed logs and errors.
