Regards, Lars, it would be nice to work on this.
Have you filed a JIRA issue for it?

I think we should - otherwise this makes replication setup rather difficult
for clusters which are already running in production. Since, between the
copy table import and the replication setup, you would end up losing some
writes.

I wonder whether we should have an option in CopyTable that identifies the
originating cluster and avoids that copying back.
When I implemented master-master replication I only added that to the
replication source (so that edit do not bounce between the masters forever).

Hi,

I want to setup a master-master replicated cluster using Hbase 0.94 - the
two clusters will be in different availability zones. I was wondering if
the following would work:

1) Setup cluster A and start reading/writing to it and run it for a week.
2) Now Setup cluster B and configure the two clusters as Master-Master.

Is it possible to have such a setup, basically adding a master replica to
an existing standalone hbase cluster ?
It will behave as master-master from the time you set that up (from
the current WALs).

Once the setup happens, would B
inherit all of data that was written to cluster A prior to the
replication
setup ?
No, you need to run a copyTable job to do so. Note that you need to
run the copyTable before starting the replication otherwise, B will
send it back to A.
a) Run the copyTable job, (note the start timestamp of the job).
b) Start the replication.
c)  Run the copyTable again with starttime equal to the starttime
noted in step 1.


Thanks
Varun
