stack commented on HBASE-5953: ------------------------------ Agreed. Its state should be out in zk anyways rather than an in-memory master state. > Expose the current state of the balancerSwitch > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5953 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5953 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: master > Affects Versions: 0.92.1, 0.94.0, 0.96.0 > Reporter: David S. Wang > Assignee: David S. Wang > Priority: Minor > > The balancerSwitch as in both 0.90 and 0.92.1 is implemented in such a way > that it is impossible to retrieve its value without changing it: > /** > Turn the load balancer on or off. > @param b If true, enable balancer. If false, disable balancer. > @return Previous balancer value > */ > public boolean balanceSwitch(final boolean b); > It would be nice to have a way to just get the current state. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
