Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-15611: ------------------------------------- h3. how can I determine which RegionServer is currently responsible for a given row? You can request the current host of a given row using a RegionLocator: {code} hbase(main):313:0> example_table = get_table 'MyTable' hbase(main):314:0> find_row = "an_example_row_key".to_java_bytes hbase(main):315:0> @hbase.instance_eval do hbase(main):316:1* puts @connection.get_region_locator(example_table.table.get_name).get_region_location(find_row, true).get_server_name.to_short_string hbase(main):317:1> end region-server-3.example.com:60020 {code} This will give you a hostname and a listening port, which should be enough information to find the correct RegionServer instance and its logs. > add examples to shell docs > --------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-15611 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15611 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation, shell > Reporter: Sean Busbey > Labels: beginner > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > It would be nice if our shell documentation included some additional examples > of operational tasks one can perform. > things to include to come in comments. when we have a patch to submit we can > update the jira summary to better reflect what scope we end up with. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
