About this task

Procedure

  1. Migrate Custom Configurations (optional).
    Migrate any custom configuration settings into the new default files in the conf directory (/opt/mapr/hbase/hbase-<version>/conf/).
  2. If the Hbase Thrift Server is installed, you will need to restart it. 
    maprcli node services -name hbasethrift -action restart -nodes
      <ThriftServer_node_hostname>
  3. If HBase REST Server is installed, perform the following steps:
    1. Update the values of the following properties in /opt/mapr/conf/conf.d/warden.hbaserest.conf to reflect the new HBase version:
      • service.command.start
      • service.command.stop
      • service.command.monitorcommand
      • service.logs.location
        For example, if you upgraded to HBase 0.98.12, the values should be set as follows:
        service.command.start=/opt/mapr/hbase/hbase-0.98.12/bin/hbase-daemon.sh start rest -p 8080 --infoport 8085
service.command.stop=/opt/mapr/hbase/hbase-0.98.12/bin/hbase-daemon.sh stop rest
service.command.monitorcommand=/opt/mapr/hbase/hbase-0.98.12/bin/hbase-daemon.sh status rest
service.logs.location=/opt/mapr/hbase/hbase-0.98.12/logs
    2. Restart the HBase REST Server: 
      maprcli node services -name hbaserest -action restart -nodes
    <node_hostname>
