[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-9139) Independent timeout configuration for rpc channel between cluster nodes

["Nicolas Liochon (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9139?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13730871#comment-13730871 ] 

Nicolas Liochon commented on HBASE-9139:
----------------------------------------

Even a 1 minute timeout is not ideal in this case: we know that the work to do server side is trivial, and we know it's idempotent so we can retry. So I would to tend to use a specific setting to use for such operations. It would be case by case. I don't have a good name for this setting, may be something like hbase.rpc.short.operation.timeout

> Default of "hbase.rpc.timeout" is 60000 ms (1 min). User sometimes
> increase them to a bigger value such as 600000 ms (10 mins) for many
> concurrent loading application from client. Some user share the same
> hbase-site.xml for both client and server. HRegionServer
> #tryRegionServerReport via rpc channel to report to live master, but
> there was a window for master failover scenario. That region server
> attempting to connect to master, which was just killed, backup master
> took the active role immediately and put to /hbase/master, but region
> server was still waiting for the rpc timeout from connecting to the dead
> master. If "hbase.rpc.timeout" is too long, this master failover process
> will be long due to long rpc timeout from dead master.
> If so, could we separate with 2 options, "hbase.rpc.timeout" is still
> for hbase client, while "hbase.rpc.internal.timeout" was for this
> regionserver/master rpc channel, which could be set shorted value
> without affect real client rpc timeout value?
