By default the master starts on the machine that you run start-hbase.sh on
You can control which machine the master starts on by running:
ssh <machine-name> ${HBASE_HOME}/bin/hbase-daemon.sh --config
"${HBASE_CONF_DIR}" start master
You can create a derivative of the start-hbase.sh script to insert the 'ssh
<machine-name>' if you still want to launch from the namenode machine, but want
the master to run on another machine

Subject: RE: Run the namenode and master seperately?
Hi All,
The hbase.rootdir property is used to specify the HDFS location
where we store the hbase works . is it right?
If we want to run the HMaster in separate machine in the cluster , than where
we specify the master. is there no need to specify the master anywhere in the
configuration?

Hi Shanmuganathan,
Use the following property in HBASE-SITE.XML to specify the HDFS path.
Ensure that you have the host name mapping of the namenode and the master
machine.
<property>
<name>hbase.rootdir</name>
<value>hdfs://linux76:9000/hbase</value>
<description>The directory shared by region servers.
</description>
</property>
<property>
Hope this information is useful.
Regards
Ram

Subject: Run the namenode and master seperately?
Hi All,
How we will run the Namenode and the HMaster in separate hosts
? Please give me some guide lines about this area.
where we give the this one is the HMaster ? In my configuration of HBase, i
didn't mention the HMaster in the any configuration file. I simply run the
hmaster in the namenode .
If we have the possibility to run the namenode and hmaster separately , give
where we mention this running environment.
Thanks in advance...
Regards
Shanmuganathan
