Hello,
I currently perform some tests that measure put/second performance.
Created a pre-splitted table to spread load like this:
create 'myTable', 'Family1', {SPLITS => ['111111.00000.0000000000000',
'222222.00000.0000000000000', '333333.00000.0000000000000',
'444444.00000.0000000000000']}
Due to this 4 limits there are 5 regions each assigned to one region server.
Referring to the stats from HMaster the load was spread.
Now I just wanted to proof fault tolerance by shutting of one region server
while running puts on all region servers.
BUT: after region server shutdown I wondered that the key region is not moved
to any alternative region server but is simply no more there.
This way always my puts are blocked -> grinding halt of the system
Logs of HMaster is clean.
HMaster is generally able to move regions as I noticed when HMaster's Heap Size
was set too high.
Has anyone an advice?
