[RFE][sahara]: Add a common HBase lib in hdfs on cluster start
Last modified: 2015-08-05 09:21:18 EDT
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/sahara/+spec/edp-add-hbase-lib. Description: HBase applications written in Java require the Hbase classpath. Typically, a Java program will be run this way using /usr/bin/hbase to get the classpath: java -cp `hbase classpath`:MyHbaseApp.jar MyHBaseApp Java jobs launched from EDP are Oozie actions, and there is no way to set an extra classpath value. Instead, the Oozie solution to this problem is to create a shared library (a directory of JAR files) in hdfs and then set the "oozie.libpath" configuration property on the job to the location of the library. This causes Oozie to make all of the jars in the library available to the job. Sahara currently supports setting the oozie.libpath configuration on a job. However, in the case of HBase there is no existing collection of JARs to point to. This blueprint proposes adding an option to create an HBase library in hdfs at cluster creation time for clusters that enable the HBase service. Specification URL (additional information): None
