Do we really need different cluster name to Hbase Replicate?

[#1]

Hi,

For HBase Replicate process. I have two separate zookeepers. But do I need different cluster name for HBase replicate? or I can modify the same cluster name to two clusters?

Thank you.

@Shen Sean, I have not used a replicate process.. but in all the experience I had with Hbase, It is sensitive in terms of mapping zookeeper to Hbase cluster.. so better to have a different cluster name for Hbase replicate.

Thank you, Hope it helps you.

@saichand akella Thank you for you quick respond! Actually, I need to have the same cluster name for HBase replicate for some reasons. So, I want to know details about what is the disadvantage/drawback to use the same cluster name for HBase replicate. Thank you!

Hi, @saichand akella I've tested using same cluster name for base replicate and it worked. Thank you.
