Hi, i am trying to create and inserting data to hbase table. when i wanted to change the maximum number of versions of row in hbase from default to 1, it worked well, i.e whenever i add new row to table, the latest value is seen. But when i tried to change using hbase shell like the following i couldn't increase the number of versions to be stored to 4.
hbase shell command: i disabled the table---> disable 'T' alter 'T', {NAME => 'F', VERSIONS => 4} enable 'T' now i scanned the table after inserting the same row with different values 3 times. Still i could see only the last inserted row only.. i tried even changing the maximum number of versions using HColumnDescriptor hcd= new HColumnDescriptor("F"); F.setMaxVersions(4); Still i could not change the number of versions to be maintained for any roe , even for any newly created tables also.. Please can anybody help..? -- *Regards* * Vamshi Krishna *
