Ubuntu Server 14.04 - Install HBase 0.98.9

Following these steps to install HBase

A. Prerequisites:
- Installed Hadoop 2.x (if not, see this link: Install single node Hadoop 2.4.0)
- Installed JDK 1.7.x (if not see this link: Install JDK 1.7.x)

B. Steps:
1. Download HBase (version HBase v0.98.9)

1	root@ubuntu:~# wget http://mirrors.viethosting.vn/apache/hbase/hbase-0.98.9/hbase-0.98.9-hadoop2-bin.tar.gz

2. Unzip this downloaded package

1	root@ubuntu:~# tar zxvf hbase-0.98.9-hadoop2-bin.tar.gz

3. Rename and move to this folder

1 2	root@ubuntu:~# mv /root/hbase-0.98.9-hadoop2 /root/hbase root@ubuntu:~# mv /root/hbase /usr/local/

4. Change owner for hduser account

1	root@ubuntu:~# chown -R hduser:hadoop /usr/local/hbase

5. Config hbase-site.xml file

1	hduser@ubuntu:~$ vi /usr/local/hbase/conf/hbase-site.xml

Add these configuration and then save

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22

<configuration> <property> <name>hbase.rootdir</name> <value>file:///usr/local/hbase/hbase-data</value> </property> <property> <name>hbase.zookeeper.property.dataDir</name> <value>/usr/local/hbase/zookeeper</value> </property> <property> <name>dfs.replication</name> <value>1</value> </property> <property> <name>hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort</name> <value>2222</value> </property> <property> <name>hbase.zookeeper.quorum</name> <value>localhost</value> </property> </configuration>

6. Uncomment this configuration in hbase-env-sh to allow HBase manage it's own instance of Zookeeper

1	hduser@ubuntu:~$ vi /usr/local/hbase/conf/hbase-env.sh

1	export HBASE_MANAGES_ZK=true

7. Update ~/.profile

1	hduser@ubuntu:~$ vi ~/.profile

1 2 3 4

# Add to the end of the file export HBASE_HOME=/usr/local/hbase export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jkd1.7.0_71 export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$HBASE_HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"

Update enviroment

1	hduser@ubuntu:~$ source ~/.profile

8. Start HBase

1 2	hduser@ubuntu:~$ start-hbase.sh starting master, logging to /usr/local/hbase/logs/hbase-hduser-master-ubuntu.out

Importance: We must start Hadoop first

9. Check if it's running

1 2 3 4

hduser@ubuntu:~$ ps -ef|grep hbase hduser 4766 1 0 10:33 pts/0 00:00:00 bash /usr/local/hbase/bin/hbase-daemon.sh --config /usr/local/hbase/conf internal_start master hduser 4780 4766 10 10:33 pts/0 00:00:11 /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_71/bin/java -Dproc_master -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=kill -9 %p -Xmx1000m -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -Dhbase.log.dir=/usr/local/hbase/logs -Dhbase.log.file=hbase-hduser-master-ubuntu.log -Dhbase.home.dir=/usr/local/hbase -Dhbase.id.str=hduser -Dhbase.root.logger=INFO,RFA -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/hadoop/lib/native -Dhbase.security.logger=INFO,RFAS org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMaster start hduser 5025 4297 0 10:34 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto hbase

10. Now, we can go to HBase shell to work

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

hduser@ubuntu:~$ hbase shell 2015-01-16 10:36:07,958 INFO [main] Configuration.deprecation: hadoop.native.lib is deprecated. Instead, use io.native.lib.available HBase Shell; enter 'help<RETURN>' for list of supported commands. Type "exit<RETURN>" to leave the HBase Shell Version 0.98.9-hadoop2, r96878ece501b0643e879254645d7f3a40eaf101f, Mon Dec 15 23:00:20 PST 2014 hbase(main):001:0>

Or we can use HBase web-based at: http://localhost:60010
