Region server stopped working or lose connection while running out of
memory? (HBASE0.20)
Hi there,
We have hadoop cluster with only 3PCs. Two are region sever with only 1GB
and 2GB RAM.
I wonder whether the region server had lost connection or stopped working
while running out of its memory.
Once I had restarted HBASE, for a while, it worked again.
If you don't stop putting data to HBase, the full cached region server,
will have no time to convert
its cached to HDFS, then it will become untouchable. Is my thinking
correct?

You have two regionservers and they have different amounts of RAM?
By default, HBASE sets its heap at 1G.
What else is running on these machines?
Are your machines swapping -- particularly the 1G regionserver?
What kind of machines are they if you don't mind?

How many regions loaded in your regionserver?

I'm not sure I follow. Are you seeing the regionserver overrun? It can't
keep up with compactions or its not flushing fast enough?
How are you doing your upload? What kind of application is it?
Thanks,
