Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-4451:
---------------------------------------
bq. [...] given that a person may connect to zk and try to look at what it is
about [...]
Shouldn't that be discouraged? ("There are no user serviceable parts inside.")
> Improve zk node naming (/hbase/shutdown)
> ----------------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-4451
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4451
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: master
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0
> Reporter: Harsh J
> Assignee: Harsh J
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.94.0

>
> Right now the node {{/hbase/shutdown}} is used to indicate cluster status
> (cluster up, cluster down).
> However, upon a chat with Lars George today, we feel that having a name
> {{/hbase/shutdown}} is possibly bad. The {{/hbase/shutdown}} zknode contains
> a date when the cluster was _started_. Now that is difficult to understand
> and digest, given that a person may connect to zk and try to look at what it
> is about (they may think it 'shutdown' at that date.).
> I feel a better name may simply be: {{/hbase/running}}. Thoughts?
