<title>HBase Tools and Utilities</title>
<para>Here we list HBase tools for administration, analysis, fixup, and debugging.</para>
<para>HBase provides several tools for administration, analysis, and debugging of your cluster.
The entry-point to most of these tools is the <filename>bin/hbase</filename> command, though
some tools are available in the <filename>dev-support/</filename> directory.</para>
<para>To see usage instructions for <filename>bin/hbase</filename> command, run it with no
arguments, or with the <option>-h</option> argument. These are the usage instructions for
HBase 0.98.x. Some commands, such as <command>version</command>, <command>pe</command>,
<command>ltt</command>, <command>clean</command>, are not available in previous
versions.</para>
