In a driver class provided by Hadoop, we can run HBase JAR files utilizing the features of Hadoop and using the following command:
hadoop jar <HBase Jar file path>/hbase-*.jar<program name>
The program names we can use here are:
completebulkload
: This is for a bulk data loadcopytable
: This is to export a table data from the local to peer clusterexport
: This is to export data from an HBase table to HDFS as a sequence fileimport
: This is to import data written byexport
importtsv
: This is to import data in TSV format to HBaserowcounter
: This is to count rows in an HBase table using MapReduceverifyrep
: This is to compare the data from tables of different clusters
We will discuss the preceding methods in the next chapter, where we will also discuss the backup/restore process. Likewise, we can call the HBase JAR file with Hadoop. The following are the Hadoop tools:
