Reg the clockoutofSync exception, just check if your cluster has same time set. This problem comes when you have time differences.

I run Regionserver, Zookeeper on both nodes and Master on 1 and Backup Master on other. Here what I did : I stopped Zookeeper on 1 node and after that I was unable to access Hbase. ERROR: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.ZooKeeperConnectionException: HBase is able to connect to ZooKeeper but the connection closes immediately. This could be a sign that the server has too many connections (30 is the default). Consider inspecting your ZK server logs for that error and then make sure you are reusing HBaseConfiguration as often as you can. See HTable's javadoc for more information. Queries : 1. If one of the zookeeper is going down , cluster is inaccessible then why we are running multiple zookeeper nodes? 2. Is there some way that if one of zookeeper nodes are working, cluster can be accessible? Some other test : If I stop RegionServer and Master on 1 node, then bakupMaster becomes Master and I can access the Hbase cluster but when I try to restart Region server on the same node on which I have shut down it gives me following error . How to fix this ? 2011-09-20 12:06:03,647 FATAL org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer: ABORTING region server serverName=master,60020,1316500563205, load=(requests=0, regions=0, usedHeap=22, maxHeap=993): Unhandled exception: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.ClockOutOfSyncException: Server master,60020,1316500563205 has been rejected; Reported time is too far out of sync with master.
