Patrick created HBASE-6343: ------------------------------ Summary: After migrating from one cluster to another, new hmaster dies when reaching out to old nodes Key: HBASE-6343 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6343 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: migration Affects Versions: 0.90.6 Environment: centos 6.0 Reporter: Patrick
I am migrating from cluster (movetest-a.domain.com to another (movetest-b.domain.com), both at the same version of hdfs/hbase. I am using mozilla's Backup tool to copy the /hbase files, but I imagine any copy tool would have this issue. Each cluster has its own zookeeper & HDFS. After copying the files, I try to start the new hmaster (movetest-b), and it dies because it cannot resolve the data nodes from the source cluster (eg data01.movetest-a.domain.com). Log: http://pastie.org/4212244 Things I tried that did not work: - delete -ROOT- from the copied data - delete .META. from the copied data - cleanly shutdown the source before copying (to flush to disk) Things I tried that did work: - add the source nodes to /etc/hosts, pointing at 127.0.0.2 (which give connection refused): 127.0.0.2 data01.movetest-a.domain.com data02.movetest-a.domain.com data03.movetest-a.domain.com After bringing up the new cluster (with /etc/hosts in place), I was able to delete the /etc/hosts entries, and bounce hbase without error. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
