Sean Busbey updated HBASE-5699:
-------------------------------
Release Note:
HBase's write-ahead-log (WAL) can now be configured to use multiple HDFS
pipelines in parallel to provide better write throughput for clusters by using
additional disks. By default, HBase will still use only a single HDFS-based
WAL.
To run with multiple WALs, alter the hbase-site.xml property
"hbase.wal.provider" to have the value "multiwal". To return to having HBase
determine what kind of WAL implementation to use either remove the property all
together or set it to "defaultProvider."
Altering the WAL provider used by a particular RegionServer requires restarting
that instance. RegionServers using the original WAL implementation and those
using the "multiwal" implementation can each handle recovery of either set of
WALs, so a zero-downtime configuration update is possible through a rolling
restart.
Here's a proposed release note. Let me know if anyone thinks there's a big gap.
