I exported a snapshot to another cluster, same version of all software. A
restore_snapshot on the target
system hung and eventually timed out, I think due to file ownership issues. I
restored hbase ownership
to everything in /apps/hbase and tried the restore_snapshot again. It’s still
hanging, but in the master logs I’m seeing:
clone snapshot={ ss=foo-9-25-14 table=Foo type=FLUSH } failed because A
clone should not have regions to restore
However, I was able to do a clone_snapshot to a table with a different name.
Does anyone know
what this means and how to get past it? (HBase 0.98)
Thanks
Brian
