Josh Elser commented on HBASE-13375: ------------------------------------ {code} Integer priorityByAnnotation = annotatedQos.get(methodName); if (priorityByAnnotation != null) { return priorityByAnnotation; } + + // all requests executed by super users have high QoS + if (isExecutedBySuperUser(remoteUgi)) { + return HConstants.ADMIN_QOS; + } + {code} Just noting that decision tree for determining priority of a call is: # Annotation on RPC method implementation # Super users # Everyone else I think this is fine presently, but, if additional prioritization gets added via the QosAnnotation, this could have unexpected outcomes. For example, if we would get to a point where all methods are annotated (explicitly define "normal" or "low" priorities), superusers would suddenly get thrown in the default bucket. Not a big concern since I don't think that's on the radar, but I thought I'd mention it anyways. Otherwise, everything looks good to me! > Provide HBase superuser higher priority over other users in the RPC handling > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13375 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13375 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: rpc > Reporter: Devaraj Das > Assignee: Mikhail Antonov > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-13375-v0.patch, HBASE-13375-v1.patch, > HBASE-13375-v1.patch > > > HBASE-13351 annotates Master RPCs so that RegionServer RPCs are treated with > a higher priority compared to user RPCs (and they are handled by a separate > set of handlers, etc.). It may be good to stretch this to users too - hbase > superuser (configured via hbase.superuser) gets higher priority over other > users in the RPC handling. That way the superuser can always perform > administrative operations on the cluster even if all the normal priority > handlers are occupied (for example, we had a situation where all the master's > handlers were tied up with many simultaneous createTable RPC calls from > multiple users and the master wasn't able to perform any operations initiated > by the admin). (Discussed this some with [~enis] and [~elserj]). > Does this make sense to others? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
