Without HDFS-265 there is the likelyhood of data loss in an extreme
crash scenario (eg: kill -9, power failure, etc). HDFS-0.21 fixes
these things, but its not out yet. In the mean time, try a regular
kill if you want to take a regionserver down w/o data loss.

Did you try flushing it to disk and then killing and found strange behavior? -
just one more experiment to remove the role of instinct :-) Thanks!

Hello Hbase Users!
I installed the Hbase distribution on a one node cluster (my test linux box)
I wrote a small client that creates a table, and inset some data in it.
Then if I do a
pkill -9 java
and restart Hbase, everything is gone (no table and thus no data in that
table any more).
I would have expected that hbase recovers well from such a 'kill' (which
could simulate a node crash).
Am I missing something?
Is that because I only use one node?
is that because the data is in memory only and needs to be flushed to disk?
Thanks
