David Manning updated HBASE-26988: ---------------------------------- Description: # Set {{hbase.master.loadbalance.bytable}} to {{true}} in {{hbase-site.xml}} # Start HMaster # Remove {{hbase.master.loadbalance.bytable}} entry in {{hbase-site.xml}} # Dynamically reload configuration for hmaster (https://hbase.apache.org/book.html#dyn_config) *Expected:* load balancing would no longer happen by table *Actual:* load balancing still happens by table *Workaround:* leave the entry in {{hbase-site.xml}} but explicitly set to {{false}} *Note 1*: The steps may only work if the config value is not in {{hbase-default.xml}} so it may be an unlikely scenario. *Note 2*: I see this when running tests added in HBASE-22349, depending on the order of execution of test methods. If {{testSloppyTablesLoadBalanceByTable}} executes before {{testBalanceOfSloppyServers}} there will be a failure. We could apply the workaround to the tests (explicitly set to {{false}}), but it seems better to fix the dynamic reconfiguration behavior. Regardless, I will propose test fixes in HBASE-26989. was: # Set {{hbase.master.loadbalance.bytable}} to {{true}} in {{hbase-site.xml}} # Start HMaster # Remove {{hbase.master.loadbalance.bytable}} entry in {{hbase-site.xml}} # Dynamically reload configuration for hmaster (https://hbase.apache.org/book.html#dyn_config) *Expected:* load balancing would no longer happen by table *Actual:* load balancing still happens by table *Workaround:* leave the entry in {{hbase-site.xml}} but explicitly set to {{false}} Note: I see this when running tests added in HBASE-22349, depending on the order of execution of test methods.
