Configuration and Setup of HBase local environment

HBase is an open-source implementation of NoSQL and BigTable. It comes from apache and is part of Hadoop databases. I have set up and run an HBase on the Virtual Machine for learning.

I have set up and run an HBase on a virtual machine for learning. I would like to briefly describe the setup process.

Environment: WinXP SP3, VMware 8.0, SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 64bit, gcc4.5.1, jdk 1.6.0;

1. Download the tar package of HBase,

I chose hbase-0.90.5.tar.gz.

Put the tar package in the/home/ln/install/directory and run the tar zxvfhbase-0.90.5.tar.gz to decompress it.

2, modify the hbase-0.90.5/conf/hbase-env.sh script, add JAVA_HOME environment variables, the specific path depends on your local JAVA installation path.

Export JAVA_HOME =/usr/lib64/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0/jre

3. Modify the hbase-0.90.5/conf/regionservers file and add the name of your HRegion server in it. Because I only use the local machine, use the default localhost in the file. Note: If you have added multiple servers, they must match the name in the/etc/hosts file.

4. Start HBase and execute./start-hbase.sh in the bin directory.

5. After the startup is complete, you can log on to the database using./hbase shell for command line operations.

6. Close HBase and execute./stop-hbase.sh.

7. If you fail to start HBase, you can view the startup log under the hbase-0.90.5/logs directory.

Well, now we start our HBase journey.
