@Amandi Can you try to run the command from a Region server host. The connection is going to a localhost on port 2181. So if Zookeeper is not running on the host from where you are running the command, it will fail. ... View more

If the current stat in hbase:meta is OPEN, I won't suggest performing any other action to change the state in meta. I suspect there are some procedures running in the backend trying to assign the region again. Do you see any procedure as such in the "Procedure & locks" section under the Hbase Master Web UI? ...

If the Region server reports that the region is already OPEN, try to scan the hbase:meta table from the hbase shell and check what state that region is in. If its still in OPENING state in meta, try to change its state to OPEN. Do it for one of the region and see if that brings down the RIT count to 133. ... View more

@MrNicen firstly, You will need to check the RS log of l230-n2.<SERVER>. As per the WARn, the region is already reported as OPEN by the same RS on which its trying again to open and going into a OPENING state. It seems there are SCPs/ multiple assign procedures are running in the backend trying to open a region that is already open.  Considering that you are on a version that can neither use hbck2 jar nor the hbck1 commands,  you can give try the below : 1) Stop both the Master 2) Move the contents of MasterProcWALs to a backup location # hdfs dfs -mv /hbase/MasterProcWALs/* /tmp/ 3) Start the Masters. If the above doesn't solve the issue, I suggest raising a support case with Cloudera to review the logs. ... View more
