HBase using WASB as rootDir

Has this been tested? I cannot see region info, pre-splitting a table occurs but I do not see whether it actually took effect. Deleting/disabling/pre-splitting a table takes a long time.

Are you using HDI? What version of HDP?

HDP 2.3.2, not HDI

I see a lot of Jira activity on WASB and HBase, I guess I'm out of luck here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12089

Using WASB as a filesystem backend for HBase has been tested and certified by Hortonworks and MS jointly. However, you should not use it with plain HDP on WASB since some configuration for WAL directories are needed (storing WALs on page store versus storing data files in blob store). I would recommend using HDI.
