hi, A table mistakenly created cannot be dropped? first we create it with 'hbase shell', below: [hadoop@hadoop3 ~]$ [hadoop@hadoop3 ~]$ hbase shell 13/01/17 15:49:35 WARN conf.Configuration: hadoop.native.lib is deprecated. Instead, use io.native.lib.available HBase Shell; enter 'help<RETURN>' for list of supported commands. Type "exit<RETURN>" to leave the HBase Shell Version 0.92.1-cdh4.1.2, r, Thu Nov 1 17:54:35 PDT 2012 hbase(main):001:0> create 't111',{NAME=>'CF111',COMPRESSION=>'snappy'} SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings. SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/app/hbase/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.6.1.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/app/hadoop/share/hadoop/common/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.6.1.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings for an explanation. ^C[hadoop@hadoop3 ~]$ (this command hang after i issue "ctrl-c". (please be noted that 'snappy' is not installed/config in this hbase.) second, we 'describe' this table, below, hbase(main):003:0> describe 't111' DESCRIPTION ENABLED {NAME => 't111', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'CF111', BLOOMFILTER => 'NONE', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS true => '3', COMPRESSION => 'SNAPPY', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}
1 row(s) in 0.0470 seconds 3rd, but this table is in the 'transition' state, and remains in this state. 4th, i want to 'drop' this table, but 'drop' hang and failed. hbase(main):002:0> disable 't111' 0 row(s) in 1.1560 seconds hbase(main):005:0> drop 't111' 'drop' is hang until i 'ctrl-c'. is there any other way to drop this table forcefully?
