Artem Ervits updated HBASE-21536: --------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Fix completebulkload usage instructions > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-21536 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21536 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Components: documentation, mapreduce > Reporter: Artem Ervits > Assignee: Artem Ervits > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: HBASE-21536.v01.patch > > > Usage information upon invoking LoadIncrementalHFiles is misleading and > error-prone. > {code:java} > usage: completebulkload /path/to/hfileoutputformat-output tablename -loadTable > -Dcreate.table=no - can be used to avoid creation of table by this tool > Note: if you set this to 'no', then the target table must already exist in > HBase > -loadTable implies your baseDirectory to store file has a depth of 3 ,you > must have an existing table > -Dignore.unmatched.families=yes - can be used to ignore unmatched column > families{code} > in case of invoking the class via hbase command, completebulkload argument is > unnecessary and only required via hadoop jar invocation. This is also an > attempt to clarify where <-loadTable> and <-Dargs> arguments go on the > command line. > Furthermore, since LoadIncrementalHFiles was recently moved out of > hbase-server.jar to hbase-mapreduce, updating ref guide to demonstrate as > such. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
