Hello,

Thanks to apurtells github repo of the hbase-ec2 i managed to start an
hbase cluster.
Everything works nicely, I can check the uis of the JT/NN and Hbase Master.

What I cant see are the ganglia metrics despite the url provided by the proxy

http://ec2-a-b-c-d.compute-1.amazonaws.com/ganglia

There was an error collecting ganglia data (127.0.0.1:8652): fsockopen
error: Connection refused

1) How can i check if even ganglia is running?

On a side note, in the hbase-ec2 scripts, all the code to run an
instance uses -k root.
I changed this to -k $EC2_ROOT_PAIR_NAME where pair name is the name
of the key I created, thus I dont
have to restrict myself to -k root. This appears to work for me.

Thanks

Joy

HBASE_VERSION=0.20.4
HADOOP_VERSION=0.20.2
https://github.com/apurtell/hbase-ec2

Yeah, this will be superseded by WHIRR-25 over the next month or two.
The "root" name was simply a choice, no reason not to change it. As
for Ganglia, do you see the Ganglia daemon run on each node? If not,
please have a look into the logs on the servers, the user scripts
usually log their process in the /var/log/messages or so.

Please feel free to add any idea to the above WHIRR-25
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-25) so that we can
include it.

Yes, messages is the right place. Saw this

I logged into the master

1. In hbase-ec2-init-remote.sh, the block is evaluated (on master)

if [ "$IS_MASTER" = "true" ]; then
  sed -i -e "s|\( *mcast_join *=.*\)|#\1|" \
         -e "s|\( *bind *=.*\)|#\1|" \
         -e "s|\( *mute *=.*\)|  mute = yes|" \
         -e "s|\( *location *=.*\)|  location = \"master-node\"|" \
         /etc/gmond.conf
  mkdir -p /mnt/ganglia/rrds
  chown -R ganglia:ganglia /mnt/ganglia/rrds
  rm -rf /var/lib/ganglia; cd /var/lib; ln -s /mnt/ganglia ganglia; cd
  service gmond start
  service gmetad start
  apachectl start
but /mnt/ganglia/rrds is not present (maybe because mnt is not mounted? or
see [2])
gmetad is not running , so

apachectl stop
service gmetad stop ## was not running in the first place
service gmond stop

mkdir -p /mnt/ganglia/rrds
chown -R ganglia:ganglia /mnt/ganglia/rrds
rm -rf /var/lib/ganglia; cd /var/lib; ln -s /mnt/ganglia ganglia; cd
service gmond start
service gmetad start
apachectl start

and ganglia now works.
[2] This block in hbase-ec2-int-remote-sh might undo everything in 1.

# Reformat sdb as xfs
umount /mnt
mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sdb
mount -o noatime /dev/sdb /mnt

Joy,

The ordering of those 2 blocks would indeed destroy the initial ganglia
setup.  Thanks for reporting this.

We'll get a fix up for it ASAP.

Fixed in https://github.com/apurtell/hbase-ec2/commit/e2384222afdad33d49cdd60ede48604d76ac1600

Dumb bug.

Thanks for reporting it!
