Andrew Purtell resolved HBASE-5353. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Later > HA/Distributed HMaster via RegionServers > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5353 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5353 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: master, regionserver > Affects Versions: 0.94.0 > Reporter: Jesse Yates > Priority: Minor > > Currently, the HMaster node(s) must be considered a 'special' node (though > not a single point of failover), meaning that the node must be protected more > than the other cluster machines or at least specially monitored. Minimally, > we always need to ensure that the master is running, rather than letting the > system handle that internally. It should be possible to instead have the > HMaster be much more available, either in a distributed sense (meaning a bit > rewrite) or multiple, dynamically created instances combined with the hot > fail-over of masters. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
