Hudson commented on HBASE-5069: ------------------------------- Integrated in HBase-TRUNK #3582 (See [https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase-TRUNK/3582/]) HBASE-5069 [book] Document how to count rows (Revision 1415733) Result = FAILURE stack : Files : * /hbase/trunk/src/docbkx/ops_mgt.xml * /hbase/trunk/src/docbkx/shell.xml > [book] Document how to count rows > --------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5069 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5069 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.96.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-5069.patch > > > I just saw that there's no documentation on how to count rows. Basically > there's: > - The "count" command in the shell, it's quite fast when configured with the > right CACHE. > - The "rowcounter" MR job, it's super fast but you need to have a MapReduce > setup in place in order to use it. > There's also a way to estimate the row count by using the HFile tool and > doing a bit of bash magic. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
