Look at the "Tool Description" section - the current usage is detailed there.
There is no "shell script" as such - if that's what you're looking for. You just kick off the command as: bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.PerformanceEvaluation With no arguments, it will give you the usage and options. There are many options that you can try (e.g. number of rows, nomapred, number of clients, etc) The wiki page gives you this example of a run using a single client: $ bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.PerformanceEvaluation sequentialWrite 1 This will run a sequential write of 1 million rows with a single client thread. --Suraj On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 7:07 AM, Felix Sprick <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'd like to run some performance tests on my Hbase cluster and was > trying to get the scripts described under > http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/PerformanceEvaluation working.
