Known Issues and Limitations

This release contains the following known issues and limitations:
  • ASYNC-5: MapR-SASL security is not implemented in AsyncHBase. As a result, an AsyncHBase client connection fails on a secure MapR cluster. Workaround: Implement AsyncHBase security, or disable HBase security.
  • MapR client nodes cannot be configured for HBase by using the configure.sh script. Workaround: To configure an HBase client node, you can use the configure_client.sh script. For more information, see Configuring HBase on a Client Node.
  • MD-5925: Drill versions 1.11.0 through 1.16.0.x do not support querying HBase tables. Workaround: None.
  • ASYNC-9: An error is generated when AsyncHBase is used to put data to a cluster with HBase and Kerberos configured. The error occurs when hbase.rpc.protection is set to privacy or integrity in the AsyncHbase client configuration. Workaround: To avoid the error, set hbase.rpc.protection to authentication.

Resolved Issues

  • None.
