Lars George commented on WHIRR-25:
----------------------------------
Another question. The hbase-ec2 scripts had a helper that would create an image
with java, hbase and so on installed that then could be used as a starting
point. With Whirr it seems that the image is a public base image with Java on
it. The init script then installs the hadoop packages (which is the same with
the hadoop cloud scripts). What do suggest as best practices?
Also there is still the question about ZooKeeper, hbase-ec2 spins it up and
passes the details into the hbase instances. It looks though that there at
least is no pseudo distributed or embedded ZK option but it spins up separate
instances for ZK. That simplifies things and points towards making use of the
ZK service already in Whirr. I still need to figure if this can be chained or
if I can access the quorum details so they can be passed on into the hbase
service. Ideally there is a forced option on the hbase service that tells it
where to find the ZK service so that it can check if it is up and running (and
optionally start it) and also get the quorum details to be passed on to the
hbase init script.
Does that make sense?
