Hi,

In the HBase doc it's explained how we can change the balancer period
http://hbase.apache.org/book/config.files.html), but I'm not able to
find how to configure the balancer class.

The balancer used is DefaultLoadBalancer which extends
BaseLoadBalancer which implements LoadBalancer. I guess that if I want
to do my own load balancer, I just have to extends BaseLoadBalancer
and give it to HBase, but how?

Thanks,

JM

You need to implement your own class, and plug it in via the configuration
key "hbase.master.loadbalancer.class" in the master's configuration.

Thanks for your prompt reply.
