Yu Li commented on HBASE-5472: ------------------------------ Hi Buddies, I encounter the same issue today, in my case I just incorrectly use "cf" when the family name is actually "CF", then when bulkload starts the warning message loops and filled-up my screen, while it's actually useless at all. I agree with Lars that it should fail with message explicitly tell user no mapping for the given family-name/column-name > LoadIncrementalHFiles loops forever if the target table misses a CF > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5472 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5472 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapreduce > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Priority: Minor > > I have some HFiles for two column families 'y','z', but I specified a target > table that only has CF 'y'. > I see the following repeated forever. > ... > 12/02/23 22:57:37 WARN mapreduce.LoadIncrementalHFiles: Attempt to bulk load > region containing into table z with files [family:y > path:hdfs://bunnypig:9000/bulk/z2/y/bd6f1c3cc8b443fc9e9e5fddcdaa3b09, > family:z > path:hdfs://bunnypig:9000/bulk/z2/z/38f12fdbb7de40e8bf0e6489ef34365d] failed. > This is recoverable and they will be retried. > 12/02/23 22:57:37 DEBUG client.MetaScanner: Scanning .META. starting at > row=z,,00000000000000 for max=2147483647 rows using > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.HConnectionManager$HConnectionImplementation@7b7a4989 > 12/02/23 22:57:37 INFO mapreduce.LoadIncrementalHFiles: Split occured while > grouping HFiles, retry attempt 1596 with 2 files remaining to group or split > 12/02/23 22:57:37 INFO mapreduce.LoadIncrementalHFiles: Trying to load > hfile=hdfs://bunnypig:9000/bulk/z2/y/bd6f1c3cc8b443fc9e9e5fddcdaa3b09 first=r > last=r > 12/02/23 22:57:37 INFO mapreduce.LoadIncrementalHFiles: Trying to load > hfile=hdfs://bunnypig:9000/bulk/z2/z/38f12fdbb7de40e8bf0e6489ef34365d first=r > last=r > 12/02/23 22:57:37 DEBUG mapreduce.LoadIncrementalHFiles: Going to connect to > server region=z,,1330066309814.d5fa76a38c9565f614755e34eacf8316., > hostname=localhost, port=60020 for row > ... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
