Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-13339:
---------------------------------------
It seems fine to update the default as long as one can go from 0.98/1.0 to 1.1
without being forced to upgrade Hadoop.
Forcing a Hadoop upgrade that requires running through the Hadoop upgrade
process through a minor HBase version upgrade is a no-go IMHO.
(I assume that would be the cases going from 2.5.x to 2.6.x)
I think what we want is all new folks starting with Hadoop 2.6.x while allowing
existing users to stay at their version of Hadoop until they upgrade HBase to
2.0.
(In theory we could simply call 1.1 2.0 instead and would not have broken any
promises)
> Update default Hadoop version to 2.6.0

> Current default Hadoop version is getting a little long in the tooth. We
> should update to the latest version. The latest version is backwards
> compatible with 2.5.1's dfs and mr so this should be painless.
