Hi Samir, You are right. But, HBase documentation didnt mention strict requirement of correct hbase directory. So, i have to do few more trials to come up with correct destination directory. As per my analysis, export directory should be <hbase.rootdir>.
In cdh, rootdir is "/hbase" while in HDP, its "/apps/hbase/data". Hence, i ran into this problem. I am going to open documentation bug in HBase. Thanks for your help.
