If you're not ingesting to anything hosted by that tserver, doing a flush of the tables with tablets on that tserver (that info should be available on the monitor page), should avoid long log recoveries.
You should be able to shut down a single tablet server with "bin/stop-here.sh" or "bin/accumulo admin $host" ($host, as it appears in the slaves file). -- Christopher L Tubbs II http://gravatar.com/ctubbsii On Tue, Feb 26, 2013 at 9:17 PM, Denis <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi. > > Is there a safer way to put a tserver off than by the killing its process? > > I mean, something similar to decommissioning of HDFS data node, when > master knows which nodes are going to be retired and slowly moves the > files from them to other nodes. > > Well, the killing must be safe as well, but the following log recovery > introduces few seconds or even minutes of data unavailability. > > Thanks.
