David S. Wang commented on HBASE-5209: -------------------------------------- Yes, the commit for 0.92 did not include the: ZKUtil.createAndFailSilent(this, backupMasterAddressesZNode); line from my patch. Stack, can you please add this line into 0.92? That should fix the current test error on 0.92 as well. Thanks. > HConnection/HMasterInterface should allow for way to get hostname of > currently active master in multi-master HBase setup > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-5209 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5209 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: master > Affects Versions: 0.94.0, 0.90.5, 0.92.0 > Reporter: Aditya Acharya > Assignee: David S.
