<title>Access Control Matrix</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The following matrix shows the minimum permission set required to perform operations in
|
|
||||||
HBase. Before using the table, read through the information about how to interpret it.</para>
|
|
||||||
<variablelist>
|
|
||||||
<title>Interpreting the ACL Matrix Table</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The following conventions are used in the ACL Matrix table:</para>
|
|
||||||
<varlistentry>
|
|
||||||
<term>Scopes</term>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para>Permissions are evaluated starting at the widest scope and working to the
|
|
||||||
narrowest scope. A scope corresponds to a level of the data model. From broadest to
|
|
||||||
narrowest, the scopes are as follows::</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Global</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Namespace (NS)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Table</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Column Family (CF)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Column Qualifier (CQ)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Cell</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>For instance, a permission granted at table level dominates any grants done at
|
|
||||||
the Column Family, Column Qualifier, or cell level. The user can do what that
|
|
||||||
grant implies at any location in the table. A permission granted at global scope
|
|
||||||
dominates all: the user is always allowed to take that action everywhere.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</varlistentry>
|
|
||||||
<varlistentry>
|
|
||||||
<term>Permissions</term>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para>Possible permissions include the following:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Superuser - a special user that belongs to group "supergroup" and has
|
|
||||||
unlimited access</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Admin (A)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Create (C)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Write (W)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Read (R)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>Execute (X)</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</varlistentry>
|
|
||||||
</variablelist>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>For the most part, permissions work in an expected way, with the following caveats:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para>Having Write permission does not imply Read permission. It is possible and sometimes
|
|
||||||
desirable for a user to be able to write data that same user cannot read. One such example
|
|
||||||
is a log-writing process.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para>The <systemitem>hbase:meta</systemitem> table is readable by every user, regardless
|
|
||||||
of the user's other grants or restrictions. This is a requirement for HBase to
|
|
||||||
function correctly.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para><code>CheckAndPut</code> and <code>CheckAndDelete</code> operations will fail if
|
|
||||||
the user does not have both Write and Read permission.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para><code>Increment</code> and <code>Append</code> operations do not require Read
|
|
||||||
access.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>The following table is sorted by the interface that provides each operation. In case the
|
|
||||||
table goes out of date, the unit tests which check for accuracy of permissions can be found
|
|
||||||
in
|
|
||||||
<filename>hbase-server/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/security/access/TestAccessController.java</filename>,
|
|
||||||
and the access controls themselves can be examined in

<filename>hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/security/access/AccessController.java</filename>.</para>

<title>Contributing to Documentation</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The Apache HBase project welcomes contributions to all aspects of the project, including
|
|
||||||
the documentation. In HBase, documentation includes the following areas, and probably some
|
|
||||||
others:</para>
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>No matter which area you want to help out with, the first step is almost always to
|
|
||||||
download (typically by cloning the Git repository) and familiarize yourself with the HBase
|
|
||||||
source code. The only exception in the list above is the HBase Wiki, which is edited online.
|
|
||||||
For information on downloading and building the source, see <xref linkend="developer"
|
|
||||||
/>.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Getting Access to the Wiki</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The HBase Wiki is not well-maintained and much of its content has been moved into the
|
|
||||||
HBase Reference Guide (this guide). However, some pages on the Wiki are well maintained,
|
|
||||||
and it would be great to have some volunteers willing to help out with the Wiki. To
|
|
||||||
request access to the Wiki, register a new account at <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase?action=newaccount"
|
|
||||||
>https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase?action=newaccount</link>. Contact one of the
|
|
||||||
HBase committers, who can either give you access or refer you to someone who can.</para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Contributing to Documentation or Other Strings</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> If you spot an error in a string in a UI, utility, script, log message, or elsewhere,
|
|
||||||
or you think something could be made more clear, or you think text needs to be added
|
|
||||||
where it doesn't currently exist, the first step is to file a JIRA. Be sure to set the
|
|
||||||
component to <literal>Documentation</literal> in addition any other involved components.
|
|
||||||
Most components have one or more default owners, who monitor new issues which come into
|
|
||||||
those queues. Regardless of whether you feel able to fix the bug, you should still file
|
|
||||||
bugs where you see them.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>If you want to try your hand at fixing your newly-filed bug, assign it to yourself.
|
|
||||||
You will need to clone the HBase Git repository to your local system and work on the
|
|
||||||
issue there. When you have developed a potential fix, submit it for review. If it
|
|
||||||
addresses the issue and is seen as an improvement, one of the HBase committers will
|
|
||||||
commit it to one or more branches, as appropriate.</para>
|
|
||||||
<procedure xml:id="submit_doc_patch_procedure">
|
|
||||||
<title>Suggested Work flow for Submitting Patches</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>This procedure goes into more detail than Git pros will need, but is included in
|
|
||||||
this appendix so that people unfamiliar with Git can feel confident contributing to
|
|
||||||
HBase while they learn.</para>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>If you have not already done so, clone the Git repository locally. You only
|
|
||||||
need to do this once.</para>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>Fairly often, pull remote changes into your local repository by using the
|
|
||||||
<code>git pull</code> command, while your master branch is checked
|
|
||||||
out.</para>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>For each issue you work on, create a new branch. One convention that works
|
|
||||||
well for naming the branches is to name a given branch the same as the JIRA it
|
|
||||||
relates to:</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">$ git checkout -b HBASE-123456</screen>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>Make your suggested changes on your branch, committing your changes to your
|
|
||||||
local repository often. If you need to switch to working on a different issue,
|
|
||||||
remember to check out the appropriate branch.</para>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>When you are ready to submit your patch, first be sure that HBase builds
|
|
||||||
cleanly and behaves as expected in your modified branch. If you have made
|
|
||||||
documentation changes, be sure the documentation and website builds.</para>
|
|
||||||
<note>
|
|
||||||
<para>Before you use the <literal>site</literal> target the very first time, be
|
|
||||||
sure you have built HBase at least once, in order to fetch all the Maven
|
|
||||||
dependencies you need.</para>
|
|
||||||
</note>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">$ mvn clean install -DskipTests # Builds HBase</screen>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">$ mvn clean site -DskipTests # Builds the website and documentation</screen>
|
|
||||||
<para>If any errors occur, address them.</para>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>If it takes you several days or weeks to implement your fix, or you know that
|
|
||||||
the area of the code you are working in has had a lot of changes lately, make
|
|
||||||
sure you rebase your branch against the remote master and take care of any
|
|
||||||
conflicts before submitting your patch.</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ git checkout HBASE-123456
|
|
||||||
$ git rebase origin/master
|
|
||||||
</screen>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>Generate your patch against the remote master. Run the following command from
|
|
||||||
the top level of your git repository (usually called
|
|
||||||
<literal>hbase</literal>):</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">$ git diff --no-prefix origin/master > HBASE-123456.patch</screen>
|
|
||||||
<para>The name of the patch should contain the JIRA ID. Look over the patch file to
|
|
||||||
be sure that you did not change any additional files by accident and that there
|
|
||||||
are no other surprises. When you are satisfied, attach the patch to the JIRA and
|
|
||||||
click the <guibutton>Patch Available</guibutton> button. A reviewer
|
|
||||||
will review your patch. If you need to submit a new version of the patch, leave
|
|
||||||
the old one on the JIRA and add a version number to the name of the new
|
|
||||||
patch.</para>
|
|
||||||
</step>
|
|
||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>After a change has been committed, there is no need to keep your local branch
|
|
||||||
around. Instead you should run <command>git pull</command> to get the new change
|
|
||||||
into your master branch.</para>

<title>Editing the HBase Website</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The source for the HBase website is in the HBase source, in the
|
|
||||||
<filename>src/main/site/</filename> directory. Within this directory, source for the
|
|
||||||
individual pages is in the <filename>xdocs/</filename> directory, and images referenced
|
|
||||||
in those pages are in the <filename>images/</filename> directory. This directory also
|
|
||||||
stores images used in the HBase Reference Guide.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>The website's pages are written in an HTML-like XML dialect called xdoc, which has a
|
|
||||||
reference guide at <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://maven.apache.org/archives/maven-1.x/plugins/xdoc/reference/xdocs.html"
|
|
||||||
>http://maven.apache.org/archives/maven-1.x/plugins/xdoc/reference/xdocs.html</link>.
|
|
||||||
You can edit these files in a plain-text editor, an IDE, or an XML editor such as
|
|
||||||
XML Mind XML Editor (XXE) or Oxygen XML Author. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>To preview your changes, build the website using the <command>mvn clean site
|
|
||||||
-DskipTests</command> command. The HTML output resides in the
|
|
||||||
<filename>target/site/</filename> directory. When you are satisfied with your
|
|
||||||
changes, follow the procedure in <xref linkend="submit_doc_patch_procedure"/> to submit
|
|
||||||
your patch.</para>

<section>

<title>Editing the HBase Reference Guide</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The source for the HBase Reference Guide is in the HBase source, in the
|
|
||||||
<filename>src/main/docbkx/</filename> directory. It is written in <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://www.docbook.org/">Docbook</link> XML. Docbook can be
|
|
||||||
intimidating, but you can typically follow the formatting of the surrounding file to get
|
|
||||||
an idea of the mark-up. You can edit Docbook XML files using a plain-text editor, an
|
|
||||||
XML-aware IDE, or a specialized XML editor.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Docbook's syntax can be picky. Before submitting a patch, be sure to build the output

|

errors, that means that the XML is well-formed, which means that each opening tag is

balanced by a closing tag. Well-formedness is not exactly the same as validity. Check

the output in <filename>target/docbkx/</filename> for any surprises before submitting a

<title>Auto-Generated Content</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Some parts of the HBase Reference Guide, most notably <xref linkend="config.files"/>,
|
|
||||||
are generated automatically, so that this area of the documentation stays in sync with
|
|
||||||
the code. This is done by means of an XSLT transform, which you can examine in the
|
|
||||||
source at <filename>src/main/xslt/configuration_to_docbook_section.xsl</filename>. This
|
|
||||||
transforms the <filename>hbase-common/src/main/resources/hbase-default.xml</filename>
|
|
||||||
file into a Docbook output which can be included in the Reference Guide. Sometimes, it
|
|
||||||
is necessary to add configuration parameters or modify their descriptions. Make the
|
|
||||||
modifications to the source file, and they will be included in the Reference Guide when
|
|
||||||
it is rebuilt.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>It is possible that other types of content can and will be automatically generated
|

from HBase source files in the future.</para>

built twice, once as a single-page output and once with one HTML file per chapter. The

single-page output is located in <filename>target/docbkx/book.html</filename>, while the

multi-page output's index page is at <filename>target/docbkx/book/book.html</filename>.

<title>Images in the HBase Reference Guide</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>You can include images in the HBase Reference Guide. For accessibility reasons, it is
|
|
||||||
recommended that you use a <figure> Docbook element for an image. This allows
|
|
||||||
screen readers to navigate to the image and also provides alternative text for the
|
|
||||||
image. The following is an example of a <figure> element.</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="xml"><![CDATA[<figure>
|
|
||||||
<title>HFile Version 1</title>
|
|

|
|
||||||
</textobject>
|
|
||||||
</mediaobject>
|
|
||||||
</figure>]]>
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>The <textobject> can contain a few sentences describing the image, rather than
|
|
||||||
simply reiterating the title. You can optionally specify alignment and size options in
|
|
||||||
the <imagedata> element.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>When doing a local build, save the image to the
|
|
||||||
<filename>src/main/site/resources/images/</filename> directory. In the
|
|
||||||
<imagedata> element, refer to the image as above, with no directory component. The
|
|
||||||
image will be copied to the appropriate target location during the build of the
|
|
||||||
output.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>When you submit a patch which includes adding an image to the HBase Reference Guide,
|
|
||||||
attach the image to the JIRA. If the committer asks where the image should be committed,
|

it should go into the above directory.</para>

<title>Adding a New Chapter to the HBase Reference Guide</title>
|
|

<para>If you want to add a new chapter to the HBase Reference Guide, the easiest way is to
|
|
||||||
copy an existing chapter file, rename it, and change the ID and title elements near the
|
|
||||||
top of the file. Delete the existing content and create the new content. Then open the
|
|
||||||
<filename>book.xml</filename> file, which is the main file for the HBase Reference
|
|
||||||
Guide, and use an <xi:include> element to include your new chapter in the
|
|
||||||
appropriate location. Be sure to add your new file to your Git repository before
|
|
||||||
creating your patch. Note that the <filename>book.xml</filename> file currently contains
|
|
||||||
many chapters. You can only include a chapter at the same nesting levels as the other
|
|
||||||
chapters in the file. When in doubt, check to see how other files have been
|
|
||||||
included.</para>

<para>It is a common pattern, and it is technically valid, to put an admonition

render as block-level elements (they take the whole width of the page), it

is better to mark them up as siblings to the paragraphs around them, like

this:</para>

<para>The number of entries in the block index is stored in the fixed file trailer, and has to be passed in to the method that reads the block index. One of the limitations of the block index in version 1 is that it does not provide the compressed size of a block, which turns out to be necessary for decompression. Therefore, the HFile reader has to infer this compressed size from the offset difference between blocks. We fix this limitation in version 2, where we store on-disk block size instead of uncompressed size, and get uncompressed size from the block header.</para>

HBase file format with inline blocks (version 2)
|
|
||||||
</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Note: this feature was introduced in HBase 0.92</para>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Motivation </title>
|
|
||||||
<para>We found it necessary to revise the HFile format after encountering high memory usage and slow startup times caused by large Bloom filters and block indexes in the region server. Bloom filters can get as large as 100 MB per HFile, which adds up to 2 GB when aggregated over 20 regions. Block indexes can grow as large as 6 GB in aggregate size over the same set of regions. A region is not considered opened until all of its block index data is loaded. Large Bloom filters produce a different performance problem: the first get request that requires a Bloom filter lookup will incur the latency of loading the entire Bloom filter bit array.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>To speed up region server startup we break Bloom filters and block indexes into multiple blocks and write those blocks out as they fill up, which also reduces the HFile writer’s memory footprint. In the Bloom filter case, “filling up a block” means accumulating enough keys to efficiently utilize a fixed-size bit array, and in the block index case we accumulate an “index block” of the desired size. Bloom filter blocks and index blocks (we call these “inline blocks”) become interspersed with data blocks, and as a side effect we can no longer rely on the difference between block offsets to determine data block length, as it was done in version 1.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>HFile is a low-level file format by design, and it should not deal with application-specific details such as Bloom filters, which are handled at StoreFile level. Therefore, we call Bloom filter blocks in an HFile "inline" blocks. We also supply HFile with an interface to write those inline blocks. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Another format modification aimed at reducing the region server startup time is to use a contiguous “load-on-open” section that has to be loaded in memory at the time an HFile is being opened. Currently, as an HFile opens, there are separate seek operations to read the trailer, data/meta indexes, and file info. To read the Bloom filter, there are two more seek operations for its “data” and “meta” portions. In version 2, we seek once to read the trailer and seek again to read everything else we need to open the file from a contiguous block.</para></section>

<para>A single-level version 2 block index consists of just a single root index block. To read a root index block of version 2, one needs to know the number of entries. For the data index and the meta index the number of entries is stored in the trailer, and for the Bloom index it is stored in the compound Bloom filter metadata.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>For a multi-level block index we also store the following fields in the root index block in the load-on-open section of the HFile, in addition to the data structure described above:</para>

</orderedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para/>
|
|
||||||
<para>These additional fields are used to efficiently retrieve the mid-key of the HFile used in HFile splits, which we define as the first key of the block with a zero-based index of (n – 1) / 2, if the total number of blocks in the HFile is n. This definition is consistent with how the mid-key was determined in HFile version 1, and is reasonable in general, because blocks are likely to be the same size on average, but we don’t have any estimates on individual key/value pair sizes. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para/>
|
|
||||||
<para>When writing a version 2 HFile, the total number of data blocks pointed to by every leaf-level index block is kept track of. When we finish writing and the total number of leaf-level blocks is determined, it is clear which leaf-level block contains the mid-key, and the fields listed above are computed. When reading the HFile and the mid-key is requested, we retrieve the middle leaf index block (potentially from the block cache) and get the mid-key value from the appropriate position inside that leaf block.</para></section>

<section><title>getShortMidpointKey(an optimization for data index block)</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Note: this optimization was introduced in HBase 0.95+</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>HFiles contain many blocks that contain a range of sorted Cells. Each cell has a key. To save IO when reading Cells, the HFile also has an index that maps a Cell's start key to the offset of the beginning of a particular block. Prior to this optimization, HBase would use the key of the first cell in each data block as the index key.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>In HBASE-7845, we generate a new key that is lexicographically larger than the last key of the previous block and lexicographically equal or smaller than the start key of the current block. While actual keys can potentially be very long, this "fake key" or "virtual key" can be much shorter. For example, if the stop key of previous block is "the quick brown fox", the start key of current block is "the who", we could use "the r" as our virtual key in our hfile index.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>There are two benefits to this:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>having shorter keys reduces the hfile index size, (allowing us to keep more indexes in memory), and</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>using something closer to the end key of the previous block allows us to avoid a potential extra IO when the target key lives in between the "virtual key" and the key of the first element in the target block.</para></listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>This optimization (implemented by the getShortMidpointKey method) is inspired by LevelDB's ByteWiseComparatorImpl::FindShortestSeparator() and FindShortSuccessor().</para>

<title>Scenario</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> Following a scheduled reboot, one data node began exhibiting unusual behavior.
|
|
||||||
Routine MapReduce jobs run against HBase tables which regularly completed in five or six
|
|
||||||
minutes began taking 30 or 40 minutes to finish. These jobs were consistently found to be
|
|
||||||
waiting on map and reduce tasks assigned to the troubled data node (e.g., the slow map
|
|
||||||
tasks all had the same Input Split). The situation came to a head during a distributed
|
|
||||||
copy, when the copy was severely prolonged by the lagging node. </para>

<title>Hypotheses</title>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>HBase "Hot Spot" Region</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> We hypothesized that we were experiencing a familiar point of pain: a "hot spot"
|
|
||||||
region in an HBase table, where uneven key-space distribution can funnel a huge number
|
|
||||||
of requests to a single HBase region, bombarding the RegionServer process and cause slow
|
|
||||||
response time. Examination of the HBase Master status page showed that the number of
|
|
||||||
HBase requests to the troubled node was almost zero. Further, examination of the HBase
|
|
||||||
logs showed that there were no region splits, compactions, or other region transitions
|
|
||||||
in progress. This effectively ruled out a "hot spot" as the root cause of the observed
|
|
||||||
slowness. </para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>HBase Region With Non-Local Data</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> Our next hypothesis was that one of the MapReduce tasks was requesting data from
|
|
||||||
HBase that was not local to the datanode, thus forcing HDFS to request data blocks from
|
|
||||||
other servers over the network. Examination of the datanode logs showed that there were
|
|
||||||
very few blocks being requested over the network, indicating that the HBase region was
|
|
||||||
correctly assigned, and that the majority of the necessary data was located on the node.
|
|
||||||
This ruled out the possibility of non-local data causing a slowdown. </para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Excessive I/O Wait Due To Swapping Or An Over-Worked Or Failing Hard Disk</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> After concluding that the Hadoop and HBase were not likely to be the culprits, we
|
|
||||||
moved on to troubleshooting the datanode's hardware. Java, by design, will periodically
|
|
||||||
scan its entire memory space to do garbage collection. If system memory is heavily
|
|
||||||
overcommitted, the Linux kernel may enter a vicious cycle, using up all of its resources
|
|
||||||
swapping Java heap back and forth from disk to RAM as Java tries to run garbage
|
|
||||||
collection. Further, a failing hard disk will often retry reads and/or writes many times
|
|
||||||
before giving up and returning an error. This can manifest as high iowait, as running
|
|
||||||
processes wait for reads and writes to complete. Finally, a disk nearing the upper edge
|
|
||||||
of its performance envelope will begin to cause iowait as it informs the kernel that it
|
|
||||||
cannot accept any more data, and the kernel queues incoming data into the dirty write
|
|
||||||
pool in memory. However, using <code>vmstat(1)</code> and <code>free(1)</code>, we could
|
|
||||||
see that no swap was being used, and the amount of disk IO was only a few kilobytes per
|
|
||||||
second. </para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Slowness Due To High Processor Usage</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> Next, we checked to see whether the system was performing slowly simply due to very
|
|
||||||
high computational load. <code>top(1)</code> showed that the system load was higher than
|
|
||||||
normal, but <code>vmstat(1)</code> and <code>mpstat(1)</code> showed that the amount of
|
|
||||||
processor being used for actual computation was low. </para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Network Saturation (The Winner)</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> Since neither the disks nor the processors were being utilized heavily, we moved on
|
|
||||||
to the performance of the network interfaces. The datanode had two gigabit ethernet
|
|
||||||
adapters, bonded to form an active-standby interface. <code>ifconfig(8)</code> showed
|
|
||||||
some unusual anomalies, namely interface errors, overruns, framing errors. While not
|
|
||||||
unheard of, these kinds of errors are exceedingly rare on modern hardware which is
|
|
||||||
operating as it should: </para>
|
|
||||||

||||||
</screen>
|
|
||||||
<para> These errors immediately lead us to suspect that one or more of the ethernet
|
|
||||||
interfaces might have negotiated the wrong line speed. This was confirmed both by
|
|
||||||
running an ICMP ping from an external host and observing round-trip-time in excess of
|
|
||||||
700ms, and by running <code>ethtool(8)</code> on the members of the bond interface and
|
|
||||||
discovering that the active interface was operating at 100Mbs/, full duplex. </para>

<para> After determining that the active ethernet adapter was at the incorrect speed, we

used the <code>ifenslave(8)</code> command to make the standby interface the active

interface, which yielded an immediate improvement in MapReduce performance, and a 10 times
|
|

improvement in network throughput: </para>

ultimately caused by a bad network cable, which was replaced. </para>

HBase Development mailing list.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>HBase supports several different compression algorithms which can be enabled on a
|
|
||||||
ColumnFamily. Data block encoding attempts to limit duplication of information in keys, taking
|
|
||||||
advantage of some of the fundamental designs and patterns of HBase, such as sorted row keys
|
|
||||||
and the schema of a given table. Compressors reduce the size of large, opaque byte arrays in
|
|
||||||
cells, and can significantly reduce the storage space needed to store uncompressed
|
|
||||||
data.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Compressors and data block encoding can be used together on the same ColumnFamily.</para>

<title>Changes Take Effect Upon Compaction</title>
|
|

<para>If you change compression or encoding for a ColumnFamily, the changes take effect during
|
|
||||||
compaction.</para>
|
|
||||||
</formalpara>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>Some codecs take advantage of capabilities built into Java, such as GZip compression.
|
|
||||||
Others rely on native libraries. Native libraries may be available as part of Hadoop, such as
|
|
||||||
LZ4. In this case, HBase only needs access to the appropriate shared library. Other codecs,
|
|
||||||
such as Google Snappy, need to be installed first. Some codecs are licensed in ways that
|
|
||||||
conflict with HBase's license and cannot be shipped as part of HBase.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>This section discusses common codecs that are used and tested with HBase. No matter what
|
|
||||||
codec you use, be sure to test that it is installed correctly and is available on all nodes in
|
|
||||||
your cluster. Extra operational steps may be necessary to be sure that codecs are available on
|
|
||||||
newly-deployed nodes. You can use the <xref
|
|

linkend="compression.test" /> utility to check that a given codec is correctly
|

installed.</para>

<para>Prefix - Often, keys are very similar. Specifically, keys often share a common prefix
|
|
||||||
and only differ near the end. For instance, one key might be
|
|
||||||
<literal>RowKey:Family:Qualifier0</literal> and the next key might be
|
|
||||||
<literal>RowKey:Family:Qualifier1</literal>. In Prefix encoding, an extra column is
|
|
||||||
added which holds the length of the prefix shared between the current key and the previous
|
|
||||||
key. Assuming the first key here is totally different from the key before, its prefix
|
|
||||||
length is 0. The second key's prefix length is <literal>23</literal>, since they have the
|
|
||||||
first 23 characters in common.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Obviously if the keys tend to have nothing in common, Prefix will not provide much

benefit.</para>

<para>Diff - Diff encoding expands upon Prefix encoding. Instead of considering the key
|
|
||||||
sequentially as a monolithic series of bytes, each key field is split so that each part of
|
|
||||||
the key can be compressed more efficiently. Two new fields are added: timestamp and type.
|
|
||||||
If the ColumnFamily is the same as the previous row, it is omitted from the current row.
|
|
||||||
If the key length, value length or type are the same as the previous row, the field is
|
|
||||||
omitted. In addition, for increased compression, the timestamp is stored as a Diff from
|
|
||||||
the previous row's timestamp, rather than being stored in full. Given the two row keys in
|
|
||||||
the Prefix example, and given an exact match on timestamp and the same type, neither the
|
|
||||||
value length, or type needs to be stored for the second row, and the timestamp value for
|
|
||||||
the second row is just 0, rather than a full timestamp.</para>

data is cached.</para>

<para>Fast Diff - Fast Diff works similar to Diff, but uses a faster implementation. It also
|
|
||||||
adds another field which stores a single bit to track whether the data itself is the same
|
|
||||||
as the previous row. If it is, the data is not stored again. Fast Diff is the recommended
|
|
||||||
codec to use if you have long keys or many columns. The data format is nearly identical to

Diff encoding, so there is not an image to illustrate it.</para>

<para>Prefix Tree encoding was introduced as an experimental feature in HBase 0.96. It
|
|
||||||
provides similar memory savings to the Prefix, Diff, and Fast Diff encoder, but provides
|
|
||||||
faster random access at a cost of slower encoding speed. Prefix Tree may be appropriate
|
|
||||||
for applications that have high block cache hit ratios. It introduces new 'tree' fields
|
|
||||||
for the row and column. The row tree field contains a list of offsets/references
|
|
||||||
corresponding to the cells in that row. This allows for a good deal of compression. For
|
|
||||||
more details about Prefix Tree encoding, see <link

<para>The compression or codec type to use depends on the characteristics of your data.

<title>Making use of Hadoop Native Libraries in HBase</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The Hadoop shared library has a bunch of facility including
|
|
||||||
compression libraries and fast crc'ing. To make this facility available
|
|
||||||
to HBase, do the following. HBase/Hadoop will fall back to use
|
|
||||||
alternatives if it cannot find the native library versions -- or
|
|
||||||
fail outright if you asking for an explicit compressor and there is
|
|
||||||
no alternative available.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>If you see the following in your HBase logs, you know that HBase was unable
|
|
||||||
to locate the Hadoop native libraries:
|
|
||||||
<programlisting>2014-08-07 09:26:20,139 WARN [main] util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
If the libraries loaded successfully, the WARN message does not show.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Lets presume your Hadoop shipped with a native library that
|
|
||||||
suits the platform you are running HBase on. To check if the Hadoop
|
|
||||||
native library is available to HBase, run the following tool (available in
|
|
||||||
Hadoop 2.1 and greater):
|
|
||||||
<programlisting>$ ./bin/hbase --config ~/conf_hbase org.apache.hadoop.util.NativeLibraryChecker
|
|

|
|
||||||
Above shows that the native hadoop library is not available in HBase context.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>To fix the above, either copy the Hadoop native libraries local or symlink to
|
|
||||||
them if the Hadoop and HBase stalls are adjacent in the filesystem.
|
|
||||||
You could also point at their location by setting the <varname>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</varname> environment
|
|
||||||
variable.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Where the JVM looks to find native librarys is "system dependent"
|
|
||||||
(See <classname>java.lang.System#loadLibrary(name)</classname>). On linux, by default,
|
|
||||||
is going to look in <filename>lib/native/PLATFORM</filename> where <varname>PLATFORM</varname>
|
|
||||||
is the label for the platform your HBase is installed on.
|
|
||||||
On a local linux machine, it seems to be the concatenation of the java properties
|
|
||||||
<varname>os.name</varname> and <varname>os.arch</varname> followed by whether 32 or 64 bit.
|
|
||||||
HBase on startup prints out all of the java system properties so find the os.name and os.arch
|
|
||||||
in the log. For example:
|
|
||||||
<programlisting>....
|
|
||||||
2014-08-06 15:27:22,853 INFO [main] zookeeper.ZooKeeper: Client environment:os.name=Linux
|
|
||||||
2014-08-06 15:27:22,853 INFO [main] zookeeper.ZooKeeper: Client environment:os.arch=amd64
|
|
||||||
...
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
So in this case, the PLATFORM string is <varname>Linux-amd64-64</varname>.
|
|
||||||
Copying the Hadoop native libraries or symlinking at <filename>lib/native/Linux-amd64-64</filename>
|
|

will ensure they are found. Check with the Hadoop <filename>NativeLibraryChecker</filename>.

<title>Configure HBase For Compressors</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Before HBase can use a given compressor, its libraries need to be available. Due to
|
|
||||||
licensing issues, only GZ compression is available to HBase (via native Java libraries) in
|
|
||||||
a default installation. Other compression libraries are available via the shared library
|
|
||||||
bundled with your hadoop. The hadoop native library needs to be findable when HBase
|
|
||||||
starts. See </para>

<title>Compressor Support On the Master</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>A new configuration setting was introduced in HBase 0.95, to check the Master to
|
|
||||||
determine which data block encoders are installed and configured on it, and assume that
|
|
||||||
the entire cluster is configured the same. This option,
|
|
||||||
<code>hbase.master.check.compression</code>, defaults to <literal>true</literal>. This
|
|
||||||
prevents the situation described in <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6370">HBASE-6370</link>, where
|
|
||||||
a table is created or modified to support a codec that a region server does not support,
|
|
||||||
leading to failures that take a long time to occur and are difficult to debug. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>If <code>hbase.master.check.compression</code> is enabled, libraries for all desired
|
|
||||||
compressors need to be installed and configured on the Master, even if the Master does
|
|
||||||
not run a region server.</para>

<para>HBase uses Java's built-in GZip support unless the native Hadoop libraries are

available on the CLASSPATH. The recommended way to add libraries to the CLASSPATH is to
|
|

set the environment variable <envar>HBASE_LIBRARY_PATH</envar> for the user running
|
|
||||||
HBase. If native libraries are not available and Java's GZIP is used, <literal>Got

<title>Apache HBase Coprocessors</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> HBase coprocessors are modeled after the coprocessors which are part of Google's BigTable

||||||
(<link xlink:href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/21631448/Dean-Keynote-Ladis2009"/>, pages
|
|
||||||
66-67.). Coprocessors function in a similar way to Linux kernel modules. They provide a way to
|
|
||||||
run server-level code against locally-stored data. The functionality they provide is very
|
|
||||||
powerful, but also carries great risk and can have adverse effects on the system, at the level
|
|
||||||
of the operating system. The information in this chapter is primarily sourced and heavily reused
|
|
||||||
from Mingjie Lai's blog post at <link

|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> Coprocessors are not designed to be used by end users of HBase, but by HBase developers who
|
|
||||||
need to add specialized functionality to HBase. One example of the use of coprocessors is
|
|
||||||
pluggable compaction and scan policies, which are provided as coprocessors in <link

<title>Monitor Time Spent in Coprocessors</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>HBase 0.98.5 introduced the ability to monitor some statistics relating to the amount of
|
|
||||||
time spent executing a given coprocessor. You can see these statistics via the HBase Metrics
|
|
||||||
framework (see <xref linkend="hbase_metrics"/> or the Web UI for a given Region Server, via
|
|
||||||
the <guilabel>Coprocessor Metrics</guilabel> tab. These statistics are valuable for debugging
|
|
||||||
and benchmarking the performance impact of a given coprocessor on your cluster. Tracked
|
|
||||||
statistics include min, max, average, and 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile. All times are shown
|
|
||||||
in milliseconds. The statistics are calculated over coprocessor
|
|
||||||
execution samples recorded during the reporting interval, which is 10 seconds by default. The
|
|
||||||
metrics sampling rate as described in <xref linkend="hbase_metrics" />.</para>

<title>Data Model</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>In HBase, data is stored in tables, which have rows and columns. This is a terminology
|
|
||||||
overlap with relational databases (RDBMSs), but this is not a helpful analogy. Instead, it can
|
|
||||||
be helpful to think of an HBase table as a multi-dimensional map.</para>

<listitem>
|
|
||||||
<para>A row in HBase consists of a row key and one or more columns with values associated
|
|
||||||
with them. Rows are sorted alphabetically by the row key as they are stored. For this
|
|
||||||
reason, the design of the row key is very important. The goal is to store data in such a
|
|
||||||
way that related rows are near each other. A common row key pattern is a website domain.
|
|
||||||
If your row keys are domains, you should probably store them in reverse (org.apache.www,
|
|
||||||
org.apache.mail, org.apache.jira). This way, all of the Apache domains are near each
|
|
||||||
other in the table, rather than being spread out based on the first letter of the
|
|
||||||
subdomain.</para>

<listitem>
|

<para>Column families physically colocate a set of columns and their values, often for
|
|
||||||
performance reasons. Each column family has a set of storage properties, such as whether
|
|
||||||
its values should be cached in memory, how its data is compressed or its row keys are
|
|
||||||
encoded, and others. Each row in a table has the same column
|
|
||||||
families, though a given row might not store anything in a given column family.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Column families are specified when you create your table, and influence the way your
|
|
||||||
data is stored in the underlying filesystem. Therefore, the column families should be
|
|
||||||
considered carefully during schema design.</para>

<listitem>

<para>A timestamp is written alongside each value, and is the identifier for a given
|
|
||||||
version of a value. By default, the timestamp represents the time on the RegionServer
|
|
||||||
when the data was written, but you can specify a different timestamp value when you put
|
|
||||||
data into the cell.</para>
|
|
||||||
<caution>
|
|
||||||
<para>Direct manipulation of timestamps is an advanced feature which is only exposed for
|
|
||||||
special cases that are deeply integrated with HBase, and is discouraged in general.
|
|
||||||
Encoding a timestamp at the application level is the preferred pattern.</para>
|
|
||||||
</caution>
|
|
||||||
<para>You can specify the maximum number of versions of a value that HBase retains, per column
|
|
||||||
family. When the maximum number of versions is reached, the oldest versions are
|
|
||||||
eventually deleted. By default, only the newest version is kept.</para>

perspectives to get a solid understanding of HBase schema design. The linked articles cover

the same ground as the information in this section.</para>
|

||||||
<para> The following example is a slightly modified form of the one on page 2 of the <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable.html">BigTable</link> paper. There
|
|
||||||
is a table called <varname>webtable</varname> that contains two rows
|
|
||||||
(<literal>com.cnn.www</literal>
|
|
||||||
and <literal>com.example.www</literal>), three column families named
|
|
||||||
<varname>contents</varname>, <varname>anchor</varname>, and <varname>people</varname>. In
|
|
||||||
this example, for the first row (<literal>com.cnn.www</literal>),
|
|
||||||
<varname>anchor</varname> contains two columns (<varname>anchor:cssnsi.com</varname>,
|
|
||||||
<varname>anchor:my.look.ca</varname>) and <varname>contents</varname> contains one column
|
|
||||||
(<varname>contents:html</varname>). This example contains 5 versions of the row with the
|
|
||||||
row key <literal>com.cnn.www</literal>, and one version of the row with the row key
|
|
||||||
<literal>com.example.www</literal>. The <varname>contents:html</varname> column qualifier contains the entire
|
|
||||||
HTML of a given website. Qualifiers of the <varname>anchor</varname> column family each
|
|
||||||
contain the external site which links to the site represented by the row, along with the
|
|
||||||
text it used in the anchor of its link. The <varname>people</varname> column family represents
|
|
||||||
people associated with the site.

|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<note>
|
|
||||||
<title>Column Names</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> By convention, a column name is made of its column family prefix and a
|
|
||||||
<emphasis>qualifier</emphasis>. For example, the column
|
|
||||||
<emphasis>contents:html</emphasis> is made up of the column family
|
|
||||||
<varname>contents</varname> and the <varname>html</varname> qualifier. The colon
|
|
||||||
character (<literal>:</literal>) delimits the column family from the column family
|
|
||||||
<emphasis>qualifier</emphasis>. </para>

Thus a request for the value of the <varname>contents:html</varname> column at time stamp

return no value. However, if no timestamp is supplied, the most recent value for a

particular column would be returned. Given multiple versions, the most recent is also the

|

first one found, since timestamps

are stored in descending order. Thus a request for the values of all columns in the row
|
|

<varname>com.cnn.www</varname> if no timestamp is specified would be: the value of

<varname>contents:html</varname> from timestamp <literal>t6</literal>, the value of

<title>Specifying the Number of Versions to Store</title>

<para>The maximum number of versions to store for a given column is part of the column

schema and is specified at table creation, or via an <command>alter</command> command, via
|
|
||||||
<code>HColumnDescriptor.DEFAULT_VERSIONS</code>. Prior to HBase 0.96, the default number

<para>When deleting an entire row, HBase will internally create a tombstone for each
|
|
||||||
ColumnFamily (i.e., not each individual column). </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Deletes work by creating <emphasis>tombstone</emphasis> markers. For example, let's
|
|
||||||
suppose we want to delete a row. For this you can specify a version, or else by default
|
|
||||||
the <literal>currentTimeMillis</literal> is used. What this means is <quote>delete all
|
|
||||||
cells where the version is less than or equal to this version</quote>. HBase never
|
|
||||||
modifies data in place, so for example a delete will not immediately delete (or mark as
|
|
||||||
deleted) the entries in the storage file that correspond to the delete condition.
|
|
||||||
Rather, a so-called <emphasis>tombstone</emphasis> is written, which will mask the
|
|
||||||
deleted values. When HBase does a major compaction, the tombstones are processed to
|
|
||||||
actually remove the dead values, together with the tombstones themselves. If the version
|
|
||||||
you specified when deleting a row is larger than the version of any value in the row,
|
|
||||||
then you can consider the complete row to be deleted.</para>

<para>Delete markers are purged during the next major compaction of the store, unless the

|
|
||||||
<option>hbase.hstore.time.to.purge.deletes</option> property in
|
|
||||||
<filename>hbase-site.xml</filename>. If
|
|

<option>hbase.hstore.time.to.purge.deletes</option> is not set, or set to 0, all
|
|
||||||
delete markers, including those with timestamps in the future, are purged during the

||||||
next major compaction. Otherwise, a delete marker with a timestamp in the future is kept

<para>Deletes mask puts, even puts that happened after the delete

|
||||||
was entered. See <link xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2256"
|
|
||||||
>HBASE-2256</link>. Remember that a delete writes a tombstone, which only
|
|
||||||
disappears after then next major compaction has run. Suppose you do
|
|
||||||
a delete of everything <= T. After this you do a new put with a
|
|
||||||
timestamp <= T. This put, even if it happened after the delete,
|
|
||||||
will be masked by the delete tombstone. Performing the put will not
|
|
||||||
fail, but when you do a get you will notice the put did have no
|
|
||||||
effect. It will start working again after the major compaction has
|
|
||||||
run. These issues should not be a problem if you use
|
|
||||||
always-increasing versions for new puts to a row. But they can occur
|
|
||||||
even if you do not care about time: just do delete and put
|
|
||||||
immediately after each other, and there is some chance they happen
|
|
||||||
within the same millisecond.</para>

<section xml:id="joins"><title>Joins</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Whether HBase supports joins is a common question on the dist-list, and there is a simple answer: it doesn't,
|
|
||||||
at not least in the way that RDBMS' support them (e.g., with equi-joins or outer-joins in SQL). As has been illustrated
|
|
||||||
in this chapter, the read data model operations in HBase are Get and Scan.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>However, that doesn't mean that equivalent join functionality can't be supported in your application, but
|
|
||||||
you have to do it yourself. The two primary strategies are either denormalizing the data upon writing to HBase,
|
|
||||||
or to have lookup tables and do the join between HBase tables in your application or MapReduce code (and as RDBMS'
|
|
||||||
demonstrate, there are several strategies for this depending on the size of the tables, e.g., nested loops vs.
|
|
||||||
hash-joins). So which is the best approach? It depends on what you are trying to do, and as such there isn't a single
|
|
||||||
answer that works for every use case.

Not really. SQL-ish support for HBase via <link xlink:href="http://hive.apache.org/">Hive</link> is in development, however Hive is based on MapReduce which is not generally suitable for low-latency requests.

<para>How do I upgrade Maven-managed projects from HBase 0.94 to HBase 0.96+?</para>
|
|

</question>
|
|
||||||
<answer>
|
|
||||||
<para>In HBase 0.96, the project moved to a modular structure. Adjust your project's
|
|
||||||
dependencies to rely upon the <filename>hbase-client</filename> module or another
|
|
||||||
module as appropriate, rather than a single JAR. You can model your Maven depency
|
|
||||||
after one of the following, depending on your targeted version of HBase. See <xref
|
|
||||||
linkend="upgrade0.96"/> or <xref linkend="upgrade0.98"/> for more
|
|

<para>This guide describes setup of a standalone HBase instance running against the local

filesystem. This is not an appropriate configuration for a production instance of HBase, but
|
|

will allow you to experiment with HBase. This section shows you how to create a table in

|

HBase using the <command>hbase shell</command> CLI, insert rows into the table, perform put
|
|
||||||
and scan operations against the table, enable or disable the table, and start and stop HBase.
|
|

Apart from downloading HBase, this procedure should take less than 10 minutes.</para>

<para>Using HBase with a local filesystem does not guarantee durability. The HDFS
|
|
||||||
local filesystem implementation will lose edits if files are not properly closed. This is
|
|
||||||
very likely to happen when you are experimenting with new software, starting and stopping
|
|
||||||
the daemons often and not always cleanly. You need to run HBase on HDFS
|
|
||||||
to ensure all writes are preserved. Running against the local filesystem is intended as a
|
|
||||||
shortcut to get you familiar with how the general system works, as the very first phase of
|
|
||||||
evaluation. See <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3696" /> and its associated issues
|
|

Click on the suggested top link. This will take you to a mirror of <emphasis>HBase

|
|

download the binary file that ends in <filename>.tar.gz</filename> to your local filesystem. Be
|
|
||||||
sure to choose the version that corresponds with the version of Hadoop you are likely to use
|
|
||||||
later. In most cases, you should choose the file for Hadoop 2, which will be called something
|
|
||||||
like <filename>hbase-0.98.3-hadoop2-bin.tar.gz</filename>. Do not download the file ending in
|
|
||||||
<filename>src.tar.gz</filename> for now.</para>

|
|

<para>For HBase 0.98.5 and later, you are required to set the <envar>JAVA_HOME</envar>
|
|
||||||
environment variable before starting HBase. Prior to 0.98.5, HBase attempted to detect
|
|
||||||
the location of Java if the variables was not set. You can set the variable via your
|
|
||||||
operating system's usual mechanism, but HBase provides a central mechanism,
|
|
||||||
<filename>conf/hbase-env.sh</filename>. Edit this file, uncomment the line starting
|
|
||||||
with <literal>JAVA_HOME</literal>, and set it to the appropriate location for your
|
|
||||||
operating system. The <envar>JAVA_HOME</envar> variable should be set to a directory
|
|
||||||
which contains the executable file <filename>bin/java</filename>. Most modern Linux
|
|
||||||
operating systems provide a mechanism, such as /usr/bin/alternatives on RHEL or CentOS,
|
|
||||||
for transparently switching between versions of executables such as Java. In this case,
|
|
||||||
you can set <envar>JAVA_HOME</envar> to the directory containing the symbolic link to
|
|
||||||
<filename>bin/java</filename>, which is usually <filename>/usr</filename>.</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen>JAVA_HOME=/usr</screen>
|
|
||||||
<note>
|
|
||||||
<para>These instructions assume that each node of your cluster uses the same
|
|
||||||
configuration. If this is not the case, you may need to set <envar>JAVA_HOME</envar>
|
|
||||||
separately for each node.</para>

</note>

</step>
|

||||||
<step>
|
|
||||||
<para>Edit <filename>conf/hbase-site.xml</filename>, which is the main HBase configuration
|
|
||||||
file. At this time, you only need to specify the directory on the local filesystem where
|
|
||||||
HBase and Zookeeper write data. By default, a new directory is created under /tmp. Many
|
|
||||||
servers are configured to delete the contents of /tmp upon reboot, so you should store
|
|
||||||
the data elsewhere. The following configuration will store HBase's data in the
|
|
||||||
<filename>hbase</filename> directory, in the home directory of the user called
|
|
||||||
<systemitem>testuser</systemitem>. Paste the <markup><property></markup> tags beneath the

<markup><configuration></markup> tags, which should be empty in a new HBase install.</para>

<para>The HMaster server controls the HBase cluster. You can start up to 9 backup HMaster
|
|
||||||
servers, which makes 10 total HMasters, counting the primary. To start a backup HMaster,
|
|
||||||
use the <command>local-master-backup.sh</command>. For each backup master you want to
|
|
||||||
start, add a parameter representing the port offset for that master. Each HMaster uses
|
|
||||||
three ports (16010, 16020, and 16030 by default). The port offset is added to these ports, so
|
|
||||||
using an offset of 2, the backup HMaster would use ports 16012, 16022, and 16032. The
|
|
||||||
following command starts 3 backup servers using ports 16012/16022/16032, 16013/16023/16033,
|
|
||||||
and 16015/16025/16035.</para>

|
|

<para>To kill a backup master without killing the entire cluster, you need to find its
|
|
||||||
process ID (PID). The PID is stored in a file with a name like
|
|
||||||
<filename>/tmp/hbase-<replaceable>USER</replaceable>-<replaceable>X</replaceable>-master.pid</filename>.
|
|
||||||
The only contents of the file are the PID. You can use the <command>kill -9</command>
|
|
||||||
command to kill that PID. The following command will kill the master with port offset 1,
|
|
||||||
but leave the cluster running:</para>

<title>Start and stop additional RegionServers</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The HRegionServer manages the data in its StoreFiles as directed by the HMaster.
|
|
||||||
Generally, one HRegionServer runs per node in the cluster. Running multiple
|
|
||||||
HRegionServers on the same system can be useful for testing in pseudo-distributed mode.
|
|
||||||
The <command>local-regionservers.sh</command> command allows you to run multiple
|
|
||||||
RegionServers. It works in a similar way to the
|
|
||||||
<command>local-master-backup.sh</command> command, in that each parameter you provide
|
|
||||||
represents the port offset for an instance. Each RegionServer requires two ports, and
|
|
||||||
the default ports are 16020 and 16030. However, the base ports for additional RegionServers
|
|
||||||
are not the default ports since the default ports are used by the HMaster, which is also
|
|
||||||
a RegionServer since HBase version 1.0.0. The base ports are 16200 and 16300 instead.
|
|
||||||
You can run 99 additional RegionServers that are not a HMaster or backup HMaster,
|
|
||||||
on a server. The following command starts four additional RegionServers, running on
|
|
||||||
sequential ports starting at 16202/16302 (base ports 16200/16300 plus 2).</para>

First, this value is used in the ZK client that HBase uses to connect to the ensemble.

It is also used by HBase when it starts a ZK server and it is passed as the 'maxSessionTimeout'. See

http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/zookeeperProgrammers.html#ch_zkSessions.

For example, if a HBase region server connects to a ZK ensemble that's also managed by HBase, then the

session timeout will be the one specified by this configuration. But, a region server that connects

to an ensemble managed with a different configuration will be subjected that ensemble's maxSessionTimeout. So,

even though HBase might propose using 90 seconds, the ensemble can have a max timeout lower than this and

it will take precedence. The current default that ZK ships with is 40 seconds, which is lower than HBase's.

If set to true (the default), HBase verifies the checksums for hfile

hfiles. HDFS (as of this writing) writes checksums to a separate file

than the data file necessitating extra seeks. Setting this flag saves

some on i/o. Checksum verification by HDFS will be internally disabled

on hfile streams when this flag is set. If the hbase-checksum verification

checksums! And besides this feature applies to hfiles only, not to WALs).

If this parameter is set to false, then hbase will not verify any checksums,

Replication to secondary region replicas works over standard inter-cluster replication.

<title>hbck In Depth</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>HBaseFsck (hbck) is a tool for checking for region consistency and table integrity problems
|
|
||||||
and repairing a corrupted HBase. It works in two basic modes -- a read-only inconsistency
|
|
||||||
identifying mode and a multi-phase read-write repair mode.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<section>
|
|
||||||
<title>Running hbck to identify inconsistencies</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>To check to see if your HBase cluster has corruptions, run hbck against your HBase cluster:</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
At the end of the commands output it prints OK or tells you the number of INCONSISTENCIES
|
|
||||||
present. You may also want to run run hbck a few times because some inconsistencies can be
|
|
||||||
transient (e.g. cluster is starting up or a region is splitting). Operationally you may want to run
|
|
||||||
hbck regularly and setup alert (e.g. via nagios) if it repeatedly reports inconsistencies .
|
|
||||||
A run of hbck will report a list of inconsistencies along with a brief description of the regions and
|
|
||||||
tables affected. The using the <code>-details</code> option will report more details including a representative
|
|
||||||
listing of all the splits present in all the tables.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -details
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>If you just want to know if some tables are corrupted, you can limit hbck to identify inconsistencies
|
|
||||||
in only specific tables. For example the following command would only attempt to check table
|
|
||||||
TableFoo and TableBar. The benefit is that hbck will run in less time.</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck TableFoo TableBar
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Inconsistencies</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
If after several runs, inconsistencies continue to be reported, you may have encountered a
|
|
||||||
corruption. These should be rare, but in the event they occur newer versions of HBase include
|
|
||||||
the hbck tool enabled with automatic repair options.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
There are two invariants that when violated create inconsistencies in HBase:
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>HBase’s region consistency invariant is satisfied if every region is assigned and
|
|
||||||
deployed on exactly one region server, and all places where this state kept is in
|
|
||||||
accordance.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para>HBase’s table integrity invariant is satisfied if for each table, every possible row key
|
|
||||||
resolves to exactly one region.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
Repairs generally work in three phases -- a read-only information gathering phase that identifies
|
|
||||||
inconsistencies, a table integrity repair phase that restores the table integrity invariant, and then
|
|
||||||
finally a region consistency repair phase that restores the region consistency invariant.
|
|
||||||
Starting from version 0.90.0, hbck could detect region consistency problems report on a subset
|
|
||||||
of possible table integrity problems. It also included the ability to automatically fix the most
|
|
||||||
common inconsistency, region assignment and deployment consistency problems. This repair
|
|
||||||
could be done by using the <code>-fix</code> command line option. These problems close regions if they are
|
|
||||||
open on the wrong server or on multiple region servers and also assigns regions to region
|
|
||||||
servers if they are not open.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
Starting from HBase versions 0.90.7, 0.92.2 and 0.94.0, several new command line options are
|
|
||||||
introduced to aid repairing a corrupted HBase. This hbck sometimes goes by the nickname
|
|
||||||
“uberhbck”. Each particular version of uber hbck is compatible with the HBase’s of the same
|
|
||||||
major version (0.90.7 uberhbck can repair a 0.90.4). However, versions <=0.90.6 and versions
|
|
||||||
<=0.92.1 may require restarting the master or failing over to a backup master.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Localized repairs</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
When repairing a corrupted HBase, it is best to repair the lowest risk inconsistencies first.
|
|
||||||
These are generally region consistency repairs -- localized single region repairs, that only modify
|
|
||||||
in-memory data, ephemeral zookeeper data, or patch holes in the META table.
|
|
||||||
Region consistency requires that the HBase instance has the state of the region’s data in HDFS
|
|
||||||
(.regioninfo files), the region’s row in the hbase:meta table., and region’s deployment/assignments on
|
|
||||||
region servers and the master in accordance. Options for repairing region consistency include:
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-fixAssignments</code> (equivalent to the 0.90 <code>-fix</code> option) repairs unassigned, incorrectly
|
|
||||||
assigned or multiply assigned regions.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-fixMeta</code> which removes meta rows when corresponding regions are not present in
|
|
||||||
HDFS and adds new meta rows if they regions are present in HDFS while not in META.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
To fix deployment and assignment problems you can run this command:
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -fixAssignments
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>To fix deployment and assignment problems as well as repairing incorrect meta rows you can
|
|
||||||
run this command:</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -fixAssignments -fixMeta
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>There are a few classes of table integrity problems that are low risk repairs. The first two are
|
|
||||||
degenerate (startkey == endkey) regions and backwards regions (startkey > endkey). These are
|
|
||||||
automatically handled by sidelining the data to a temporary directory (/hbck/xxxx).
|
|
||||||
The third low-risk class is hdfs region holes. This can be repaired by using the:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-fixHdfsHoles</code> option for fabricating new empty regions on the file system.
|
|
||||||
If holes are detected you can use -fixHdfsHoles and should include -fixMeta and -fixAssignments to make the new region consistent.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -fixAssignments -fixMeta -fixHdfsHoles
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>Since this is a common operation, we’ve added a the <code>-repairHoles</code> flag that is equivalent to the
|
|
||||||
previous command:</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -repairHoles
|
|
||||||
</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>If inconsistencies still remain after these steps, you most likely have table integrity problems
|
|
||||||
related to orphaned or overlapping regions.</para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Region Overlap Repairs</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Table integrity problems can require repairs that deal with overlaps. This is a riskier operation
|
|
||||||
because it requires modifications to the file system, requires some decision making, and may
|
|
||||||
require some manual steps. For these repairs it is best to analyze the output of a <code>hbck -details</code>
|
|
||||||
run so that you isolate repairs attempts only upon problems the checks identify. Because this is
|
|
||||||
riskier, there are safeguard that should be used to limit the scope of the repairs.
|
|
||||||
WARNING: This is a relatively new and have only been tested on online but idle HBase instances
|
|
||||||
(no reads/writes). Use at your own risk in an active production environment!
|
|
||||||
The options for repairing table integrity violations include:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-fixHdfsOrphans</code> option for “adopting” a region directory that is missing a region
|
|
||||||
metadata file (the .regioninfo file).</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-fixHdfsOverlaps</code> ability for fixing overlapping regions</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>When repairing overlapping regions, a region’s data can be modified on the file system in two
|
|
||||||
ways: 1) by merging regions into a larger region or 2) by sidelining regions by moving data to
|
|
||||||
“sideline” directory where data could be restored later. Merging a large number of regions is
|
|
||||||
technically correct but could result in an extremely large region that requires series of costly
|
|
||||||
compactions and splitting operations. In these cases, it is probably better to sideline the regions
|
|
||||||
that overlap with the most other regions (likely the largest ranges) so that merges can happen on
|
|
||||||
a more reasonable scale. Since these sidelined regions are already laid out in HBase’s native
|
|
||||||
directory and HFile format, they can be restored by using HBase’s bulk load mechanism.
|
|
||||||
The default safeguard thresholds are conservative. These options let you override the default
|
|
||||||
thresholds and to enable the large region sidelining feature.</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-maxMerge <n></code> maximum number of overlapping regions to merge</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-sidelineBigOverlaps</code> if more than maxMerge regions are overlapping, sideline attempt
|
|
||||||
to sideline the regions overlapping with the most other regions.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-maxOverlapsToSideline <n></code> if sidelining large overlapping regions, sideline at most n
|
|
||||||
regions.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>Since often times you would just want to get the tables repaired, you can use this option to turn
|
|
||||||
on all repair options:</para>
|
|
||||||
<itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<listitem><para><code>-repair</code> includes all the region consistency options and only the hole repairing table
|
|
||||||
integrity options.</para>
|
|
||||||
</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</itemizedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>Finally, there are safeguards to limit repairs to only specific tables. For example the following
|
|
||||||
command would only attempt to check and repair table TableFoo and TableBar.</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -repair TableFoo TableBar
|
|
||||||
</screen>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Special cases: Meta is not properly assigned</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>There are a few special cases that hbck can handle as well.
|
|
||||||
Sometimes the meta table’s only region is inconsistently assigned or deployed. In this case
|
|
||||||
there is a special <code>-fixMetaOnly</code> option that can try to fix meta assignments.</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase hbck -fixMetaOnly -fixAssignments
|
|
||||||
</screen>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Special cases: HBase version file is missing</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>HBase’s data on the file system requires a version file in order to start. If this flie is missing, you
|
|
||||||
can use the <code>-fixVersionFile</code> option to fabricating a new HBase version file. This assumes that
|
|
||||||
the version of hbck you are running is the appropriate version for the HBase cluster.</para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Special case: Root and META are corrupt.</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>The most drastic corruption scenario is the case where the ROOT or META is corrupted and
|
|
||||||
HBase will not start. In this case you can use the OfflineMetaRepair tool create new ROOT
|
|
||||||
and META regions and tables.
|
|
||||||
This tool assumes that HBase is offline. It then marches through the existing HBase home
|
|
||||||
directory, loads as much information from region metadata files (.regioninfo files) as possible
|
|
||||||
from the file system. If the region metadata has proper table integrity, it sidelines the original root
|
|
||||||
and meta table directories, and builds new ones with pointers to the region directories and their
|
|
||||||
data.</para>
|
|
||||||
<screen language="bourne">
|
|
||||||
$ ./bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.hbck.OfflineMetaRepair
|
|
||||||
</screen>
|
|
||||||
<para>NOTE: This tool is not as clever as uberhbck but can be used to bootstrap repairs that uberhbck
|
|
||||||
can complete.
|
|
||||||
If the tool succeeds you should be able to start hbase and run online repairs if necessary.</para>
|
|
||||||
</section>
|
|
||||||
<section><title>Special cases: Offline split parent</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
Once a region is split, the offline parent will be cleaned up automatically. Sometimes, daughter regions
|
|
||||||
are split again before their parents are cleaned up. HBase can clean up parents in the right order. However,
|
|
||||||
there could be some lingering offline split parents sometimes. They are in META, in HDFS, and not deployed.
|
|
||||||
But HBase can't clean them up. In this case, you can use the <code>-fixSplitParents</code> option to reset
|
|
||||||
them in META to be online and not split. Therefore, hbck can merge them with other regions if fixing
|
|
||||||
overlapping regions option is used.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|
||||||
This option should not normally be used, and it is not in <code>-fixAll</code>.

<title>HBase and MapReduce</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Apache MapReduce is a software framework used to analyze large amounts of data, and is
|
|
||||||
the framework used most often with <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://hadoop.apache.org/">Apache Hadoop</link>. MapReduce itself is out of the
|
|
||||||
scope of this document. A good place to get started with MapReduce is <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.2.1/mapred_tutorial.html" />. MapReduce version
|
|
||||||
2 (MR2)is now part of <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.3.0/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/">YARN</link>. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> This chapter discusses specific configuration steps you need to take to use MapReduce on
|
|
||||||
data within HBase. In addition, it discusses other interactions and issues between HBase and
|
|
||||||
MapReduce jobs.
|
|
||||||
<note>
|
|
||||||
<title>mapred and mapreduce</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>There are two mapreduce packages in HBase as in MapReduce itself: <filename>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapred</filename>
|
|
||||||
and <filename>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce</filename>. The former does old-style API and the latter
|
|
||||||
the new style. The latter has more facility though you can usually find an equivalent in the older
|
|
||||||
package. Pick the package that goes with your mapreduce deploy. When in doubt or starting over, pick the
|
|
||||||
<filename>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce</filename>. In the notes below, we refer to
|
|
||||||
o.a.h.h.mapreduce but replace with the o.a.h.h.mapred if that is what you are using.

<title>HBase, MapReduce, and the CLASSPATH</title>

<para>By default, MapReduce jobs deployed to a MapReduce cluster do not have access to either
|
|
||||||
the HBase configuration under <envar>$HBASE_CONF_DIR</envar> or the HBase classes.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>To give the MapReduce jobs the access they need, you could add
|
|
||||||
<filename>hbase-site.xml</filename> to the
|
|
||||||
<filename><replaceable>$HADOOP_HOME</replaceable>/conf/</filename> directory and add the
|
|
||||||
HBase JARs to the <filename><replaceable>HADOOP_HOME</replaceable>/conf/</filename>
|
|
||||||
directory, then copy these changes across your cluster. You could add hbase-site.xml to
|
|
||||||
$HADOOP_HOME/conf and add HBase jars to the $HADOOP_HOME/lib. You would then need to copy
|
|
||||||
these changes across your cluster or edit
|
|
||||||
<filename><replaceable>$HADOOP_HOME</replaceable>conf/hadoop-env.sh</filename> and add
|
|
||||||
them to the <envar>HADOOP_CLASSPATH</envar> variable. However, this approach is not
|
|
||||||
recommended because it will pollute your Hadoop install with HBase references. It also
|
|
||||||
requires you to restart the Hadoop cluster before Hadoop can use the HBase data.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para> Since HBase 0.90.x, HBase adds its dependency JARs to the job configuration itself. The
|
|
||||||
dependencies only need to be available on the local CLASSPATH. The following example runs
|
|
||||||
the bundled HBase <link

|
|
||||||
the environment variables expected in the command (the parts prefixed by a
|
|
||||||
<literal>$</literal> sign and curly braces), you can use the actual system paths instead.
|
|
||||||
Be sure to use the correct version of the HBase JAR for your system. The backticks
|
|
||||||
(<literal>`</literal> symbols) cause ths shell to execute the sub-commands, setting the
|
|
||||||
CLASSPATH as part of the command. This example assumes you use a BASH-compatible shell. </para>

|
|

<para>When the command runs, internally, the HBase JAR finds the dependencies it needs for
|
|
||||||
zookeeper, guava, and its other dependencies on the passed <envar>HADOOP_CLASSPATH</envar>
|

and adds the JARs to the MapReduce job configuration. See the source at

inadvertently introduced a classloader dependency. </para>

<para>In order to satisfy the new classloader requirements, hbase-protocol.jar must be

included in Hadoop's classpath. See <xref

<title>MapReduce Scan Caching</title>

<para>TableMapReduceUtil now restores the option to set scanner caching (the number of rows
|
|
||||||
which are cached before returning the result to the client) on the Scan object that is
|
|
||||||
passed in. This functionality was lost due to a bug in HBase 0.95 (<link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11558">HBASE-11558</link>), which
|
|
||||||
is fixed for HBase 0.98.5 and 0.96.3. The priority order for choosing the scanner caching is

|
||||||
as follows:</para>

|

</listitem>
|
|
||||||
</orderedlist>
|
|
||||||
<para>Optimizing the caching settings is a balance between the time the client waits for a
|
|
||||||
result and the number of sets of results the client needs to receive. If the caching setting
|
|
||||||
is too large, the client could end up waiting for a long time or the request could even time
|
|
||||||
out. If the setting is too small, the scan needs to return results in several pieces.
|
|
||||||
If you think of the scan as a shovel, a bigger cache setting is analogous to a bigger
|
|
||||||
shovel, and a smaller cache setting is equivalent to more shoveling in order to fill the
|
|
||||||
bucket.</para>

or review the <code>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.TestTableMapReduce</code> unit test. </para>
|

<para>If you run MapReduce jobs that use HBase as source or sink, need to specify source and

sink table and column names in your configuration.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>When you read from HBase, the <code>TableInputFormat</code> requests the list of regions
|
|
||||||
from HBase and makes a map, which is either a <code>map-per-region</code> or
|
|
||||||
<code>mapreduce.job.maps</code> map, whichever is smaller. If your job only has two maps,
|
|
||||||
raise <code>mapreduce.job.maps</code> to a number greater than the number of regions. Maps
|
|
||||||
will run on the adjacent TaskTracker if you are running a TaskTracer and RegionServer per
|
|
||||||
node. When writing to HBase, it may make sense to avoid the Reduce step and write back into
|
|
||||||
HBase from within your map. This approach works when your job does not need the sort and
|
|
||||||
collation that MapReduce does on the map-emitted data. On insert, HBase 'sorts' so there is
|
|
||||||
no point double-sorting (and shuffling data around your MapReduce cluster) unless you need
|
|
||||||
to. If you do not need the Reduce, you myour map might emit counts of records processed for
|
|
||||||
reporting at the end of the jobj, or set the number of Reduces to zero and use
|
|
||||||
TableOutputFormat. If running the Reduce step makes sense in your case, you should typically
|
|
||||||
use multiple reducers so that load is spread across the HBase cluster.</para>

<para>A new HBase partitioner, the <link

xlink:href="http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/mapreduce/HRegionPartitioner.html">HRegionPartitioner</link>,
|
|
||||||
can run as many reducers the number of existing regions. The HRegionPartitioner is suitable
|
|
||||||
when your table is large and your upload will not greatly alter the number of existing
|
|
||||||
regions upon completion. Otherwise use the default partitioner. </para>

<classname>IntWritable</classname> represents an instance counter.

<para>It is also possible to perform summaries without a reducer - if you use HBase as the

reducer. </para>
|
|

<para>An HBase target table would need to exist for the job summary. The Table method
|
|
||||||
<code>incrementColumnValue</code> would be used to atomically increment values. From a
|
|

performance perspective, it might make sense to keep a Map of values with their values to
|
|

be incremeneted for each map-task, and make one update per key at during the <code>
|
|

cleanup</code> method of the mapper. However, your milage may vary depending on the

number of rows to be processed and unique keys. </para>

<title>HBase MapReduce Summary to RDBMS</title>
|

<para>Sometimes it is more appropriate to generate summaries to an RDBMS. For these cases,

it is possible to generate summaries directly to an RDBMS via a custom reducer. The

|

<code>setup</code> method can connect to an RDBMS (the connection information can be

passed via custom parameters in the context) and the cleanup method can close the

connection. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>It is critical to understand that number of reducers for the job affects the
|

summarization implementation, and you'll have to design this into your reducer.
|
|
||||||
Specifically, whether it is designed to run as a singleton (one reducer) or multiple
|
|
||||||
reducers. Neither is right or wrong, it depends on your use-case. Recognize that the more
|
|

reducers that are assigned to the job, the more simultaneous connections to the RDBMS will

be created - this will scale, but only to a point. </para>

<title>Heads-up if this is your first foray into the world of distributed

|
|

<para> If this is your first foray into the wonderful world of Distributed Computing, then
|
|
||||||
you are in for some interesting times. First off, distributed systems are hard; making a
|
|
||||||
distributed system hum requires a disparate skillset that spans systems (hardware and
|
|
||||||
software) and networking. Your cluster' operation can hiccup because of any of a myriad
|
|
||||||
set of reasons from bugs in HBase itself through misconfigurations -- misconfiguration
|
|
||||||
of HBase but also operating system misconfigurations -- through to hardware problems
|
|
||||||
whether it be a bug in your network card drivers or an underprovisioned RAM bus (to
|
|
||||||
mention two recent examples of hardware issues that manifested as "HBase is slow"). You
|
|
||||||
will also need to do a recalibration if up to this your computing has been bound to a
|
|
||||||
single box. Here is one good starting point: <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacies_of_Distributed_Computing">Fallacies
|
|
||||||
of Distributed Computing</link>. That said, you are welcome. Its a fun place to be.

||||||
Yours, the HBase Community. </para>

xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11658">HBASE-11658)</link>.
|
|

Non-interactive mode captures the exit status (success or failure) of HBase Shell
|
|
||||||
commands and passes that status back to the command interpreter. If you use the normal
|
|

interactive mode, the HBase Shell will only ever return its own exit status, which will

nearly always be <literal>0</literal> for success.</para>

Bash shell which is the default command interpreter for most Linux and UNIX

<title>Checking the Result of a Scripted Command</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Since scripts are not designed to be run interactively, you need a way to check
|
|
||||||
whether your command failed or succeeded. The HBase shell uses the standard
|
|
||||||
convention of returning a value of <literal>0</literal> for successful commands, and
|
|
||||||
some non-zero value for failed commands. Bash stores a command's return value in a
|
|
||||||
special environment variable called <varname>$?</varname>. Because that variable is
|
|
||||||
overwritten each time the shell runs any command, you should store the result in a
|
|
||||||
different, script-defined variable.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>This is a naive script that shows one way to store the return value and make a
|
|
||||||
decision based upon it.</para>

<title>Checking for Success or Failure In Scripts</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>Getting an exit code of 0 means that the command you scripted definitely
|
|
||||||
succeeded. However, getting a non-zero exit code does not necessarily mean the
|
|
||||||
command failed. The command could have succeeded, but the client lost connectivity,
|
|
||||||
or some other event obscured its success. This is because RPC commands are
|
|
||||||
stateless. The only way to be sure of the status of an operation is to check. For
|
|
||||||
instance, if your script creates a table, but returns a non-zero exit value, you
|
|
||||||
should check whether the table was actually created before trying again to create
|
|
||||||
it.</para>

<para> HBase 0.95 adds shell commands that provide a jruby-style object-oriented
|
|

references for tables. Previously all of the shell commands that act upon a table
|

have a procedural style that always took the name of the table as an argument. HBase

0.95 introduces the ability to assign a table to a jruby variable. The table

gets well as admin functionality such as disabling, dropping, describing tables. </para>

<link

xlink:href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6449">HBASE-6449</link> added support
|
|
||||||
for tracing requests through HBase, using the open source tracing library, <link
|
|
||||||
xlink:href="http://github.com/cloudera/htrace">HTrace</link>. Setting up tracing is quite
|
|
||||||
simple, however it currently requires some very minor changes to your client code (it would not
|
|
||||||
be very difficult to remove this requirement). </para>

<section

<title>SpanReceivers</title>
|
|
||||||
<para> The tracing system works by collecting information in structs called 'Spans'. It is up to
|
|
||||||
you to choose how you want to receive this information by implementing the
|
|
||||||
<classname>SpanReceiver</classname> interface, which defines one method: </para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting><![CDATA[
|
|
||||||
public void receiveSpan(Span span);
|
|
||||||
]]></programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>This method serves as a callback whenever a span is completed. HTrace allows you to use as
|
|
||||||
many SpanReceivers as you want so you can easily send trace information to multiple
|
|
||||||
destinations. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> Configure what SpanReceivers you'd like to us by putting a comma separated list of the
|
|

fully-qualified class name of classes implementing <classname>SpanReceiver</classname> in

<filename>hbase-site.xml</filename> property:
|
|
||||||
<varname>hbase.trace.spanreceiver.classes</varname>. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|

<para> HTrace includes a <classname>LocalFileSpanReceiver</classname> that writes all span
|
|
||||||
information to local files in a JSON-based format. The
|
|
||||||
<classname>LocalFileSpanReceiver</classname> looks in <filename>hbase-site.xml</filename>
|
|
||||||
for a <varname>hbase.local-file-span-receiver.path</varname> property with a value describing
|
|
||||||
the name of the file to which nodes should write their span information. </para>

<para> HTrace also provides <classname>ZipkinSpanReceiver</classname> which converts spans to <link

xlink:href="http://github.com/twitter/zipkin">Zipkin</link> span format and send them to
|
|
||||||
Zipkin server. In order to use this span receiver, you need to install the jar of

htrace-zipkin to your HBase's classpath on all of the nodes in your cluster. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>
|
|

<filename>htrace-zipkin</filename> is published to the maven central repository. You could get
|
|
||||||
the latest version from there or just build it locally and then copy it out to all nodes,
|
|
||||||
change your config to use zipkin receiver, distribute the new configuration and then (rolling)
|
|

restart. </para>
|
|

<para> Here is the example of manual setup procedure. </para>

<para>This example will add unit tests to the following example class:</para>

<programlisting language="java">
|
|

public class MyHBaseDAO {

}
|

</programlisting>
|
|

<para>The first step is to add JUnit dependencies to your Maven POM file:</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="xml"><![CDATA[

|
|

</dependency>
|
|
||||||
]]></programlisting>
|
|
||||||
<para>Next, add some unit tests to your code. Tests are annotated with
|
|
||||||
<literal>@Test</literal>. Here, the unit tests are in bold.</para>
|
|
||||||
<programlisting language="java">
|

public class TestMyHbaseDAOData {

</programlisting>
|
|

<para>These tests ensure that your <code>createPut</code> method creates, populates, and

returns a <code>Put</code> object with expected values. Of course, JUnit can do much
|

more than this. For an introduction to JUnit, see <link

<title>Mockito</title>
|

<para>Mockito is a mocking framework. It goes further than JUnit by allowing you to test the

interactions between objects without having to replicate the entire environment. You can

read more about Mockito at its project site, <link

>https://code.google.com/p/mockito/</link>.</para>
|
|

<para>You can use Mockito to do unit testing on smaller units. For instance, you can mock a

<classname>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.Server</classname> instance or a
|
|
||||||
<classname>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.MasterServices</classname> interface

reference rather than a full-blown

<classname>org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMaster</classname>.</para>

<para>This example builds upon the example code in <xref linkend="unit.tests"/>, to test the

|
||||||
<code>insertRecord</code> method.</para>
|

<para>First, add a dependency for Mockito to your Maven POM file.</para>

<para>This code populates <code>HBaseTestObj</code> with “ROWKEY-1”, “DATA-1”, “DATA-2” as

have inserted is captured, and values are tested to verify that they are what you

expected them to be.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>The key here is to manage htable pool and htable instance creation outside the DAO.
|
|
||||||
This allows you to mock them cleanly and test Puts as shown above. Similarly, you can

now expand into other operations such as Get, Scan, or Delete.</para>

<title>Odd/Even Versioning or "Development"" Series Releases</title>
|
|

<para>Ahead of big releases, we have been putting up preview versions to start the
|
|
||||||
feedback cycle turning-over earlier. These "Development" Series releases, always
|
|
||||||
odd-numbered, come with no guarantees, not even regards being able to upgrade
|
|
||||||
between two sequential releases (we reserve the right to break compatibility across
|
|
||||||
"Development" Series releases). Needless to say, these releases are not for
|
|
||||||
production deploys. They are a preview of what is coming in the hope that interested
|
|
||||||
parties will take the release for a test drive and flag us early if we there are
|
|

issues we've missed ahead of our rolling a production-worthy release. </para>
|
|

<para>Our first "Development" Series was the 0.89 set that came out ahead of HBase

0.90.0. HBase 0.95 is another "Development" Series that portends HBase 0.96.0.
|
|
||||||
0.99.x is the last series in "developer preview" mode before 1.0. Afterwards,
|
|

we will be using semantic versioning naming scheme (see above).

<title>Binary Compatibility</title>
|
|

<para>When we say two HBase versions are compatible, we mean that the versions are wire
|
|

and binary compatible. Compatible HBase versions means that clients can talk to
|
|

compatible but differently versioned servers. It means too that you can just swap
|
|
||||||
out the jars of one version and replace them with the jars of another, compatible
|
|
||||||
version and all will just work. Unless otherwise specified, HBase point versions are
|
|
||||||
(mostly) binary compatible. You can safely do rolling upgrades between binary compatible
|
|
||||||
versions; i.e. across point versions: e.g. from 0.94.5 to 0.94.6. See <link

<title><firstterm>Rolling Upgrades</firstterm></title>
|
|
||||||
<para>A rolling upgrade is the process by which you update the servers
|
|
||||||
in your cluster a server at a time. You can rolling upgrade across HBase versions
|
|
||||||
if they are binary or wire compatible.
|
|
||||||
See <xlnk href="hbase.rolling.restart" /> for more on what this means.
|
|
||||||
Coarsely, a rolling upgrade is a graceful stop each server,
|
|
||||||
update the software, and then restart. You do this for each server in the cluster.
|
|
||||||
Usually you upgrade the Master first and then the regionservers.
|
|
||||||
See <xlink href="rolling" /> for tools that can help use the rolling upgrade process.
|
|
||||||
</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>For example, in the below, hbase was symlinked to the actual hbase install.
|
|
||||||
On upgrade, before running a rolling restart over the cluser, we changed the symlink
|
|
||||||
to point at the new HBase software version and then ran
|
|
||||||
<programlisting>$ HADOOP_HOME=~/hadoop-2.6.0-CRC-SNAPSHOT ~/hbase/bin/rolling-restart.sh --config ~/conf_hbase</programlisting>
|
|
||||||
The rolling-restart script will first gracefully stop and restart the master, and then
|
|
||||||
each of the regionservers in turn. Because the symlink was changed, on restart the
|
|
||||||
server will come up using the new hbase version. Check logs for errors as the
|
|
||||||
rolling upgrade proceeds.

<title>Rolling Upgrade between versions that are Binary/Wire compatibile</title>

<para>Unless otherwise specified, HBase point versions are binary compatible. You can do

a <xlink href="hbase.rolling.upgrade" /> between hbase point versions.

For example, you can go to 0.94.6 from 0.94.5 by doing a rolling upgrade

configs to get the LruBlockCache and BucketCache sizes set to

what they were in 0.98.x and previous. If you did not set this

<title>Upgrading <code>META</code> to use Protocol Buffers (Protobuf)</title>
|
|
||||||
<para>When you upgrade from versions prior to 0.96, <code>META</code> needs to be
|
|
||||||
converted to use protocol buffers. This is controlled by the configuration
|
|
||||||
option <option>hbase.MetaMigrationConvertingToPB</option>, which is set to
|
|
||||||
<literal>true</literal> by default. Therefore, by default, no action is
|
|
||||||
required on your part.</para>
|
|
||||||
<para>The migration is a one-time event. However, every time your cluster starts,
|
|
||||||
<code>META</code> is scanned to ensure that it does not need to be
|
|
||||||
converted. If you have a very large number of regions, this scan can take a long
|
|
||||||
time. Starting in 0.98.5, you can set
|
|
||||||
<option>hbase.MetaMigrationConvertingToPB</option> to
|
|
||||||
<literal>false</literal> in <filename>hbase-site.xml</filename>, to disable
|
|

this start-up scan. This should be considered an expert-level setting.</para>

memstore has zero or just a few small elements. This is fine usually but if you had

lots of regions per regionserver in a 0.90.x cluster (and MSLAB was off), you may

find yourself OOME'ing on upgrade because the <code>thousands of regions * number of

Set <varname>hbase.hregion.memstore.mslab.enabled</varname> to

<para>0.92.0 stores data in a new format, <xref

HFile v2 format. This auto-migration will run in the background as flushes and

compactions run. HFile V2 allows HBase run with larger regions/files. In fact, we
|
|
||||||
encourage that all HBasers going forward tend toward Facebook axiom #1, run with
|
|
||||||
larger, fewer regions. If you have lots of regions now -- more than 100s per host --
|
|
||||||
you should look into setting your region size up after you move to 0.92.0 (In
|

0.92.0, default size is now 1G, up from 256M), and then running online merge tool

<para>This version of 0.90.x HBase can be started on data written by HBase 0.20.x or HBase
|
|

0.89.x. There is no need of a migration step. HBase 0.89.x and 0.90.x does write out the

name rather than a jenkins hash -- so this means that once started, there is no going

<para> Be sure to remove the <filename>hbase-default.xml</filename> from your

have sub-optimal configurations for 0.90.x HBase. The

<filename>hbase-default.xml</filename> file is now bundled into the HBase jar and

read from there. If you would like to review the content of this file, see it in the src

|
|

<para> Finally, if upgrading from 0.20.x, check your <varname>.META.</varname> schema in the
|
|
||||||
shell. In the past we would recommend that users run with a 16kb
|
|
||||||
<varname>MEMSTORE_FLUSHSIZE</varname>. Run <code>hbase> scan '-ROOT-'</code> in the
|
|
||||||
shell. This will output the current <varname>.META.</varname> schema. Check
|
|
||||||
<varname>MEMSTORE_FLUSHSIZE</varname> size. Is it 16kb (16384)? If so, you will need
|
|
||||||
to change this (The 'normal'/default value is 64MB (67108864)). Run the script
|
|
||||||
<filename>bin/set_meta_memstore_size.rb</filename>. This will make the necessary
|
|
||||||
edit to your <varname>.META.</varname> schema. Failure to run this change will make for
|
|
||||||
a slow cluster. See <link

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>A distributed Apache HBase installation depends on a running ZooKeeper cluster. All
|
|
||||||
participating nodes and clients need to be able to access the running ZooKeeper ensemble. Apache
|
|
||||||
HBase by default manages a ZooKeeper "cluster" for you. It will start and stop the ZooKeeper
|
|
||||||
ensemble as part of the HBase start/stop process. You can also manage the ZooKeeper ensemble
|
|
||||||
independent of HBase and just point HBase at the cluster it should use. To toggle HBase
|
|
||||||
management of ZooKeeper, use the <varname>HBASE_MANAGES_ZK</varname> variable in
|
|
||||||
<filename>conf/hbase-env.sh</filename>. This variable, which defaults to
|
|
||||||
<varname>true</varname>, tells HBase whether to start/stop the ZooKeeper ensemble servers as
|
|
||||||
part of HBase start/stop.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>When HBase manages the ZooKeeper ensemble, you can specify ZooKeeper configuration using its
|
|
||||||
native <filename>zoo.cfg</filename> file, or, the easier option is to just specify ZooKeeper
|
|
||||||
options directly in <filename>conf/hbase-site.xml</filename>. A ZooKeeper configuration option
|
|
||||||
can be set as a property in the HBase <filename>hbase-site.xml</filename> XML configuration file
|
|
||||||
by prefacing the ZooKeeper option name with <varname>hbase.zookeeper.property</varname>. For
|
|
||||||
example, the <varname>clientPort</varname> setting in ZooKeeper can be changed by setting the
|
|
||||||
<varname>hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort</varname> property. For all default values used
|
|
||||||
by HBase, including ZooKeeper configuration, see <xref
|
|
||||||
linkend="hbase_default_configurations" />. Look for the
|
|
||||||
<varname>hbase.zookeeper.property</varname> prefix. For the full list of ZooKeeper configurations, see ZooKeeper's
|
|
||||||
<filename>zoo.cfg</filename>. HBase does not ship with a <filename>zoo.cfg</filename> so
|
|
||||||
you will need to browse the <filename>conf</filename> directory in an appropriate ZooKeeper
|
|
||||||
download.</para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>You must at least list the ensemble servers in <filename>hbase-site.xml</filename> using the
|
|
||||||
<varname>hbase.zookeeper.quorum</varname> property. This property defaults to a single
|
|
||||||
ensemble member at <varname>localhost</varname> which is not suitable for a fully distributed
|
|
||||||
HBase. (It binds to the local machine only and remote clients will not be able to connect). </para>

<title>How many ZooKeepers should I run?</title>
|
|

|
|
||||||
<para>You can run a ZooKeeper ensemble that comprises 1 node only but in production it is
|
|
||||||
recommended that you run a ZooKeeper ensemble of 3, 5 or 7 machines; the more members an
|
|
||||||
ensemble has, the more tolerant the ensemble is of host failures. Also, run an odd number of
|
|
||||||
machines. In ZooKeeper, an even number of peers is supported, but it is normally not used
|
|
||||||
because an even sized ensemble requires, proportionally, more peers to form a quorum than an
|
|
||||||
odd sized ensemble requires. For example, an ensemble with 4 peers requires 3 to form a
|
|
||||||
quorum, while an ensemble with 5 also requires 3 to form a quorum. Thus, an ensemble of 5
|
|
||||||
allows 2 peers to fail, and thus is more fault tolerant than the ensemble of 4, which allows
|
|
||||||
only 1 down peer. </para>
|
|
||||||
<para>Give each ZooKeeper server around 1GB of RAM, and if possible, its own dedicated disk (A
|
|
||||||
dedicated disk is the best thing you can do to ensure a performant ZooKeeper ensemble). For
|
|
||||||
very heavily loaded clusters, run ZooKeeper servers on separate machines from RegionServers

|

(DataNodes and TaskTrackers).</para>

|

ensure <varname>HBASE_MANAGE_ZK</varname> is commented out or set to <varname>true</varname> in

<filename>conf/hbase-env.sh</filename> and then edit <filename>conf/hbase-site.xml</filename>
|

<varname>hbase.zookeeper.property.dataDir</varname> to other than the default as the default

<title>Operating System Prerequisites</title>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> You need to have a working Kerberos KDC setup. For each <code>$HOST</code> that will
|
|
||||||
run a ZooKeeper server, you should have a principle <code>zookeeper/$HOST</code>. For each
|
|
||||||
such host, add a service key (using the <code>kadmin</code> or <code>kadmin.local</code>
|
|
||||||
tool's <code>ktadd</code> command) for <code>zookeeper/$HOST</code> and copy this file to
|
|
||||||
<code>$HOST</code>, and make it readable only to the user that will run zookeeper on
|
|
||||||
<code>$HOST</code>. Note the location of this file, which we will use below as
|
|
||||||
<filename>$PATH_TO_ZOOKEEPER_KEYTAB</filename>. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> Similarly, for each <code>$HOST</code> that will run an HBase server (master or
|
|
||||||
regionserver), you should have a principle: <code>hbase/$HOST</code>. For each host, add a
|
|
||||||
keytab file called <filename>hbase.keytab</filename> containing a service key for
|
|
||||||
<code>hbase/$HOST</code>, copy this file to <code>$HOST</code>, and make it readable only
|
|
||||||
to the user that will run an HBase service on <code>$HOST</code>. Note the location of this
|
|
||||||
file, which we will use below as <filename>$PATH_TO_HBASE_KEYTAB</filename>. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para> Each user who will be an HBase client should also be given a Kerberos principal. This
|
|
||||||
principal should usually have a password assigned to it (as opposed to, as with the HBase
|
|
||||||
servers, a keytab file) which only this user knows. The client's principal's
|
|
||||||
<code>maxrenewlife</code> should be set so that it can be renewed enough so that the user
|
|
||||||
can complete their HBase client processes. For example, if a user runs a long-running HBase
|
|
||||||
client process that takes at most 3 days, we might create this user's principal within
|
|
||||||
<code>kadmin</code> with: <code>addprinc -maxrenewlife 3days</code>. The Zookeeper client
|
|
||||||
and server libraries manage their own ticket refreshment by running threads that wake up
|
|
||||||
periodically to do the refreshment. </para>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<para>On each host that will run an HBase client (e.g. <code>hbase shell</code>), add the
|
|
||||||
following file to the HBase home directory's <filename>conf</filename> directory:</para>

<screen language="bourne">
|

echo `find ~/.m2 -name "*hadoop-core*7070*SNAPSHOT.jar"` ':' `cat target/cached_classpath.txt` | sed 's/ //g' > target/tmp.txt
