Hi, I have hbase setup in pseudo distributed atop HDFS ( again pseudo distributed mode ) in production. This Hbase version is 0.94.7 and Hadoop version is 1.1.2.
I was planning to have a fully distributed 2 node cluster on 2 new machines with latest stable Hbase and Hadoop versions and then copy data from existing cluster to this new cluster using copyTable. But now i have to add a new machine in existing psuedo distributed mode cluster to make it in distributed mode. My question is how this can be achieved cleanly. My another concern is "dfs.replication" property which i set to one in both Hadoop and Hbase configuration.So when i upgrade existing pseudo distributed mode to fully distributed , how will data be replicated to newly added machine ? Also will regions automatically move to new machine or i will have to run some shell command to manually move it (balance command ) ? Please help. -- Thanks and Regards, Vimal Jain
