Josh Elser commented on HBASE-13222: ------------------------------------ Something like {{MasterChores}}, and then we can define sub-messages within such as Balancer, table reshape and other chores? Looking at the existing Master protos, we have {{IsCatalogJanitorEnabled}} already. Maybe we could consider a single RPC that combines related stuff into one call long term? If at least one old call is there already, there will be some lifetime attached to them. I'll have to see how this looks -- would probably give a better feeling for how it'd operate. > Provide means of non-destructive balancer inspection > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13222 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13222 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Balancer > Reporter: Nick Dimiduk > Assignee: Josh Elser > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.98.13 > > Attachments: HBASE-13222.00-0.98.patch > > > At least on 0.98 (haven't checked master, 1.0), it seems we don't have a > means for accessing balancer status w.o changing it in the process. Here's a > little script to tickle ZK and see what the flag is. Would be nice if this > was available from the shell, on the master status page, or something similar. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
