Andrew Purtell resolved HBASE-1964. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Duplicate > Enter temporary "safe mode" to ride over transient FS layer problems > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-1964 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1964 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Client > Reporter: elsif > > When a hadoop/hbase cluster is under heavy load it will inevitably reach a > tipping point where data is lost or corrupted. A > graceful method is needed to put the cluster into safe mode until more > resources can be added or the load on the cluster has been > reduced. > St.Ack has suggested the following short-term task: "Meantime, it should be > possible to have a cron run a script that checks > cluster resources from time-to-time -- e.g. how full hdfs is, how much each > regionserver is carrying -- and when it determines the needle is in the red, > flip the cluster to be read-only." -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
