Ident String
Hi,
Was coming across `HBASE_IDENT_STR` (in hbase-env.sh) which sets
`hbase.id.str` as a command line parameter to the daemon. But I cannot
find where that is used. Could someone point me in the right
direction?
Cheers,
Lars

When there're two (or more) region server instances running on the same
machine, the ident str can be used to distinguish the instances.
There may be other scenarios where the ident str is used.
Cheers

Don't think it is necessary, does not to any harm.

Ah ok, I missed that HBASE_IDENT_STR is used to personalize the log and pid file names. Hadoop does the same, so that makes sense. But the -Dhbase.id.str is not used, neither is it in Hadoop. No worries, just wanted to see if anyone had an idea if that was ever used. Does not seem to be the case.

Lars

It dates back to Hadoop:
https://github.com/apache/hbase/commit/24b065cc91f7bcdab25fc3634699657ac2f27104
See this https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blame/trunk/hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/main/conf/hadoop-env.sh#L202
It is used there for logs (according to the comment, haven't checked if it really does). Are we doing that? Will check...

Thanks Stack, but you are talking about something else methinks. I know of the "-Dproc_<process name>" convention. What I am asking about is different, it is settable by the user in the hbase-env.sh and is added to the command line as "-Dhbase.id.str=...". I have no idea who is using it and why. Makes sense?

It shows when you do a long processing listing. It is a convention from
hadoop. It does similar. Here's a few example snippets Lars:
For hbase master process listing, you'll find this in the long line...:
-Dproc_master
Etc:
-Dproc_zookeeper
-Dproc_resourcemanager
