Hbase shell reports 2 live servers

[Christopher Chase <ch...@sproxil.com>]

Hello,

I currently have a cluster up and running (Name-node, Secondary 
name-node and 6 Data-nodes). I just recently learned about the "status" 
command in Hbase Shell. When I run the "status simple" command, I was 
surprised to see that it reported there being 2 live servers (datanode3 
and datanode6) as opposed to 6. Is this normal, or should I be worried 
that only 1/3 of my datanodes are being used?

Did you start region servers on all the datanodes ?

If so, please check on the nodes where region server was not reported being
alive.

Cheers
