What version are you running?
HBase 0.90.4 / hadoop 0.20.2

I don't see any explicit NPE mentions in the commit log on
HConnectionManager.  Maybe its still an issue?

St.Ack

ok, thanks for the sanity check. I'll dig a little deeper and also see if the problem reproduces on 0.92.

Hi, everyone,

I often get an NPE during the YCSB load process if timeseries is set and I'm
loading lots of records. Here's the syntax I'm using:

   YCSB Client 0.1
   Command line: -load -db com.yahoo.ycsb.db.HBaseClient -P
workloads/workloada -p columnfamily=family -p recordcount=10000000 -threads
32 -s -p measurementtype=timeseries -p timeseries.granularity=5000

100 million records load successfully with 32 threads if timeseries is not
set. But when I set timeseries, I often get NPEs with stacks that move
around depending on the number of records and the timeseries granularity.

For example:

1) 10 million records gets an NPE when timeseries is enabled with a
granularity of 5000 ms (but 4000 ms loads successfully):

2) 100 million records gets an NPE with 4000 ms (note the changed stack):

3) 100 million records gets an NPE with 3000 ms (and the stack changes):

I found HBASE-3878, but it looks like that was fixed in 0.90.4.
I also found HBASE-5088, which is marked fixed in 0.90.6 -- does anyone
recognize if this problem fits that profile?

many thanks,

  -jean
