> ----------------------------------

> Key: HBASE-4663
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4663
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: documentation, regionserver
> Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan

>
> This copier is a modification of the distcp tool in HDFS. It does the
> following:
> 1. List out all the regions in the HBase cluster for the required table
> 2. Write the above out to a file
> 3. Each mapper
> 3.1 lists all the HFiles for a given region by querying the regionserver
> 3.2 copies all the HFiles
> 3.3 outputs success if the copy succeeded, failure otherwise. Failed
> regions are retried in another loop
> 4. Mappers are placed on nodes which have maximum locality for a given region
> to speed up copying
