HBase smoketest

hi every body,
i am conducting a manula installation of HDP 1.2.0… i have reached to the stage of conducting hbase smoke test. i can successfully connect to the hbase shell.. but when issuing commands i get
**************************************************************************************
hbase(main):002:0> create ‘usertable’, ‘family’

ERROR: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.MasterNotRunningException: Retried 7 times

Here is some help for this command:
Create table; pass table name, a dictionary of specifications per
column family, and optionally a dictionary of table configuration.
Dictionaries are described below in the GENERAL NOTES section.
Examples:

hbase> create ‘t1′, {NAME => ‘f1′, VERSIONS => 5}
hbase> create ‘t1′, {NAME => ‘f1′}, {NAME => ‘f2′}, {NAME => ‘f3′}
hbase> # The above in shorthand would be the following:
hbase> create ‘t1′, ‘f1′, ‘f2′, ‘f3′
hbase> create ‘t1′, {NAME => ‘f1′, VERSIONS => 1, TTL => 2592000, BLOCKCACHE => true}
hbase> create ‘t1′, ‘f1′, {SPLITS => ['10', '20', '30', '40']}
hbase> create ‘t1′, ‘f1′, {SPLITS_FILE => ‘splits.txt’}
hbase> # Optionally pre-split the table into NUMREGIONS, using
hbase> # SPLITALGO (“HexStringSplit”, “UniformSplit” or classname)
hbase> create ‘t1′, ‘f1′, {NUMREGIONS => 15, SPLITALGO => ‘HexStringSplit’}

Hi Zuhair,

It is good to know that you have figured it out.

Thanks,
Ted.

hi Ted,

thanks for the tip. i have resolved the issue. it all relates to DNS binding and resolution.
it becomes so confusing.. sometimes address binding will work with Localhost and sometimes it works with FQDN..

Hi Zuhair,

When you run the following command:

<JAVA_HOME>/jps

do you get a HMaster and a QuorumPeerMain in the listing? If not then this is why you are getting the errot you are seeing.

Thanks,
Ted.
