[jira] Commented: (HBASE-2006) Documentation of hbase-site.xml parameters

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2006?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12781678#action_12781678 ] 

stack commented on HBASE-2006:
------------------------------

Mark: Do you think it a good idea having the "documentation" in two places -- in the xml description tag and then elsewhere in the software or up on a wiki?  In my experience, the two tend to diverge pretty soon after they are made.

That said, maybe we're missing documentation of the key configurations or better intro doc. that highlights important config?  Thanks.

> There is nowhere on the site or wiki a detailed examination of the parameters behind HBase. You have to open hbase-default.xml to see them and their descriptions. A page on the wiki with descriptions would be nice
