It sounds like your VM host is not properly configured for remote access; the canonical hostname should not be any of the localhost derivatives if you are going to try to use the machine remotely.
If necessary, there are configuration settings you can use to change what interface HBase looks at to determine what host name to advertise in ZooKeeper. However, in this case you will avoid more problems in the future by correcting the canonical hostname. AFAIK, the Cloudera Quickstart VM is not meant to be used by remote clients. Since this is a vendor specific problem rather than a problem with HBase, I'd suggest you check for hep at the vendor's community forum: http://community.cloudera.com/ One thing to check is that you are using the latest Quickstart VM, if I recall correctly work was done on the update to C5 to make sure the canonical hostname wasn't localhost.localdomain. -Sean On Mon, Sep 29, 2014 at 10:21 AM, SACHINGUPTA <sac...@datametica.com> wrote: > 'hostname' command returns localhost.localdomain > I am having a cloudera quick start vm so i am using that as my cluster so > whatever cloudera provides i have it. > > And i am trying to access the hbase of cloudera vm remotely > > On Monday 29 September 2014 08:38 PM, Sean Busbey wrote: > >> What does the "hostname" command return on the master? >> >> Do you have any backup-masters configured? >> >> What is the contents of your regionservers file? >> >> On Mon, Sep 29, 2014 at 9:55 AM, SACHINGUPTA <sac...@datametica.com> >> wrote: >> >> yes >>> >>> On Monday 29 September 2014 08:18 PM, Sean Busbey wrote: >>> >>> Does the IP you listed properly handle DNS resolution?
