HBase Region Servers Startup Failed after Namenode HA

sparsh_singhal — Mon, 28 May 2018 14:00:44 GMT

After Namenode HA, 2 out of my 3 Region Servers in HBase are not coming up. I looked at the logs and found that it is throwing unknown host exception for name service.

Looks like Hadoop configurations was missing under classpath and it is not able to detect the nameservice.

Can you check hbase config directory on working region server and non-working region server whether there are missing core-site.xml or hdfs-site.xml files?

@schhabra

I checked hbase-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml and core-site.xml. They are exactly same on both nodes.

Well, the configuration files were correct, but the environment was not set properly. Checked hbase env on both nodes and found a difference. Update with the following properties in ambari and it worked:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=::/usr/hdp/2.6.3.0-235/hadoop/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/lib/hadoop/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/hdp/2.6.3.0-235/hadoop/lib/native
export HADOOP_HOME=/usr/hdp/2.6.3.0-235/hadoop
export HADOOP_CONF_DIR=/usr/hdp/2.6.3.0-235/hadoop/etc/hadoop
