Zhihong Yu commented on HBASE-5208: ----------------------------------- Running the test based on patch v3 timed out. Here is strace: {code} "main" prio=5 tid=101801000 nid=0x100601000 waiting on condition [1005fe000] java.lang.Thread.State: TIMED_WAITING (sleeping) at java.lang.Thread.sleep(Native Method) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobClient.monitorAndPrintJob(JobClient.java:1295) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job.waitForCompletion(Job.java:498) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.TestTableInputFormatScan.testScanFromConfiguration(TestTableInputFormatScan.java:355) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.TestTableInputFormatScan.testScanYZYToEmpty(TestTableInputFormatScan.java:319) {code} You can use the following command to verify that the new test case passes (just an example): {code} mvn test -P localTests TestTableInputFormatScan#testScanEmptyToEmpty {code} > Allow setting Scan start/stop row individually in TableInputFormat > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-5208 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5208 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapreduce > Reporter: Nicholas Telford > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-5208-001.txt, HBASE-5208-002.txt, > HBASE-5208-003.txt > > > Currently, TableInputFormat initializes a serialized Scan from > "hbase.mapreduce.scan". Alternatively, it will instantiate a new Scan using > properties defined in "hbase.mapreduce.scan.*". However, of these properties > the "start row" and "stop row" (arguably the most pertinent) are missing. > TableInputFormat should permit the specification of a start/stop row as with > the other fields using a new pair of properties: > "hbase.mapreduce.scan.row.start" and "hbase.mapreduce.scan.row.end" > The primary use-case for this is to permit Oozie and other job management > tools that can't call TableMapReduceUtil.initTableMapperJob() to operate on a > contiguous subset of rows. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
