Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-5209:
---------------------------------------
Might be out of scope for this patch but the ServerName structure doesn't have
the info (http) port of master or rs's (not sure about the history on this).
It would be great if we could add some information in cluster stats that also
provides the info port of the active master.
> HConnection/HMasterInterface should allow for way to get hostname of
> currently active master in multi-master HBase setup

> I have a multi-master HBase set up, and I'm trying to programmatically
> determine which of the masters is currently active. But the API does not
> allow me to do this. There is a getMaster() method in the HConnection class,
> but it returns an HMasterInterface, whose methods do not allow me to find out
> which master won the last race. The API should have a
> getActiveMasterHostname() or something to that effect.
