I believe the easiest way would be to run 'hadoop dfs -du -h /hbase'. I believe /hbase is the default storage location for tables in hdfs. The size will be either compressed or uncompressed, depending upon if compression is enabled.

I am trying to figure out a way how to find the total size of each table in my hBase. I have looked into hbase shell commands. There's "status 'detailed'", that shows storefileSizeMB. If I were to add all of these grouped by tablename, would that be the correct way to show MB used per table? Is there any other (easier/cleaner) way? hbase version is 1.1.1.2.3, HDFS: 2.7.1 Thanks Marjana -- View this message in context: http://apache-hbase.679495.n3.nabble.com/find-size-of-each-table-in-the-cluster-tp4078899.html Sent from the HBase User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
