Summary: API to get hdfs block distribution from regionservers Key: HBASE-22356 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-22356 Project: HBase Issue Type: Sub-task Components: API, Balancer, regionserver Reporter: Thiruvel Thirumoolan Assignee: Thiruvel Thirumoolan Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.2.1, 1.5.1 A RegionServer API has to be added which will return HDFSBlockDistribution for all the regions it hosts. RS already has this info cached and updated when flush/compaction happens. Master can query and get instead of hitting the namenode and caching. The larger the cluster becomes, the more costly it becomes to get this information and more stale the cached information becomes. This jira is only to add the API to regionserver. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
