Veritas NetBackup™ for HBase Administrator's Guide

Best practices for deploying the HBase plug-in

Consider the following when you deploy HBase plug-in and configure NetBackup for HBase:

  • Use consistent conventions for hostnames of backup hosts, media servers, and master server. For example, if you are using the hostname as HBase.veritas.com (FQDN format) use the same everywhere.

  • Add the entries of all the HMaster and region servers to the /etc/hosts file on all the backup hosts. You must add the hostname in FQDN format.

    Or

    Add the appropriate DNS entries in the /etc/resolve.conf file.

  • Always specify the HMaster and region servers in FQDN format.

  • Ping all the nodes (use FQDN) from the backup hosts.
