Appy commented on HBASE-16044: ------------------------------ Reverted those changes from branch-1. Submitted patch to fix this issue in master. Following output shows difference between interactive/non-interactive for a simple command like balance_switch. Interactive {noformat} hbase(main):003:0> balance_switch true Previous balancer state : true Took 0.0210 seconds hbase(main):004:0> balance_switch false Previous balancer state : true Took 0.0130 seconds {noformat} Non-interactive output. Note the last line returning raw (unformatted) output which in this case is simple true/false string. {noformat} ~/apache/hbase (HBASE-16044) → echo "balance_switch true" | ./bin/hbase shell -n 2016-06-28 18:23:12,930 WARN [main] util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable Previous balancer state : false Took 0.3890 seconds false ~/apache/hbase (HBASE-16044) → echo "balance_switch true" | ./bin/hbase shell -n 2016-06-28 18:23:22,528 WARN [main] util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable Previous balancer state : true Took 0.3830 seconds true {noformat} > Fix 'hbase shell' output parsing in graceful_stop.sh > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-16044 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16044 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: scripts > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Samir Ahmic > Assignee: Samir Ahmic > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-16044.master.001.patch > > > In some of our bash scripts we are piping command in hbase shell and then > parsing response to define variables.
