Hi, Chukwa 0.4 uses MySQL. Chukwa 0.5 (trunk) uses HBase. There has been a lot of investment to get Hadoop 0.20.205 to work with HBase 0.90.4 without data loss (supporting append). Once Hadoop 0.20.205 is officially released (probably some time this month). Chukwa 0.5 will be the most useful system for log analysis and visualization.
Chukwa quickstart guide should be a good place to start getting Chukwa to work with HBase: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Chukwa_Quick_Start Hope this is useful. regards, Eric On Oct 6, 2011, at 6:42 PM, pablomar wrote: > hi all, > > I did a fresh fodora 15 installation to try chukwa. > > According to the Admin Guide > (http://incubator.apache.org/chukwa/docs/r0.4.0/admin.html#Set+Up+the+Database) > I need (ok, it's optional) MySQL, but then I saw that Chukwa 4.0 uses HBase. > > However, later, I read there is some data loss issue between the last version > of hadoop and hbase (a workaround here: > http://www.michael-noll.com/blog/2011/04/14/building-an-hadoop-0-20-x-version-for-hbase-0-90-2/) > > I would love to try chukwa for log analysis.
