I am evaluating HBase Multiple master utility as I require that functionality. I used a simple 4 machine hbase cluster with M1 as master. Now I started the Hmaster in M4 as well. I could see logs in M4 Master log as, This HMaster is waiting as already M1 is acting as HMaster.

After this I stopped the Master in the M1 and after few seconds, the M4 master took over. But I am not seeing any region server communicating to this new master. The region server logs show, 

2011-10-31 23:21:18,834 WARN org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer: Unable to connect to master. Retrying. Error was:

        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)

Also in the M4 Master log I am seeing, 

2011-10-31 23:20:47,671 INFO org.apache.hadoop.http.HttpServer: listener.getLocalPort() returned 60010 webServer.getConnectors()[0].getLocalPort() returned 60010

2011-10-31 23:20:53,197 INFO org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.ServerManager: Waiting on regionserver(s) to checkin

Seems the region servers are only communicating to the M1 Hmaster and not to the new one!!

I am using Hbase – 0.90.0 version

Any help regarding this is highly appreciated!!

    It seems this works fine with Hbase 0.90.3. Need to verify though!!
