Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-12570: --------------------------------------- I'd be in favor of backporting HBASE-10591 to 0.98. Might lead to surprises, though. [~apurtell], what do you think? > Missing/invalid split policy class name brings down your HBase cluster > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12570 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12570 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: James Taylor > > See PHOENIX-1473. If a split policy class cannot be resolved, then your HBase > cluster will be brought down as each region server that successively attempts > to open the region will not find the class and will bring itself down. > One idea to prevent this would be to fail the CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE > admin call if the split policy class cannot be found. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
