There is no option to export materialized snapshot to AWS yet - only to another HBase cluster. You can export snapshot metadata to s3 using S3 FileSystem in Hadoop, but this is not you are looking for. You can export snapshots to table(s) in another cluster and then use distcp to copy data over to s3. One caveat: you have to have spare cluster for that, because you can't export table's snapshot to different cluster and different table (name).
yea, too many limitations. One major enhancement to snapshots which is definitely welcomed is ability to export materialized snapshots to a different DFS location (S3 in this case) Best regards, Vladimir Rodionov Principal Platform Engineer Carrier IQ, www.carrieriq.com e-mail: [email protected] ________________________________________ From: Dhanasekaran Anbalagan [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2013 12:51 PM To: cdh-user; [email protected] Subject: Hbase ExportSnapshot with AWS Hi Guys, It's possible to Export Snapshot with Amazon S3 or Glacier. Currently we have two hbase cluster running on same datacenter. We want backup solution for Hbase data. want redundant backup solution for data store. something like S3 or Glacier.
