Hello, We're running Hbase 0.96.1.1 under CDH5.0.2 and we're seeing a different behavior than with CDH 4.8 (Hbase .94.xx)
Running the code below is creating an empty cell instead of no cell for this line of code String tname = "my_test"; Configuration configuration = HBaseConfiguration.create(); HBaseAdmin baseAdmin = new HBaseAdmin(configuration); baseAdmin.disableTable(tname); baseAdmin.deleteTable(tname); TableName tableName = TableName.valueOf(tname); HTableDescriptor tableDescriptor = new HTableDescriptor(tableName); HColumnDescriptor columnDescriptor = new HColumnDescriptor("default"); tableDescriptor.addFamily(columnDescriptor); baseAdmin.createTable(tableDescriptor); final String rowKey = "12345"; final Put p = new Put(Bytes.toBytes(rowKey)); for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) { for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) { final byte[] family = Bytes.toBytes("default"); final byte[] column = Bytes.toBytes("c" + i); if (i == 5) { p.add(new KeyValue(p.getRow(), family, column, HConstants.LATEST_TIMESTAMP, KeyValue.Type.Delete)); } else { p.add(family, column, Bytes.toBytes("c" + i + "_value_" + (j+1))); } } } HTableInterface table = new HTable(configuration, tableName); table.put(p); hbase shell hbase(main):003:0* scan 'my_test' ROW COLUMN+CELL 12345 column=default:c0, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c0_value_3 12345 column=default:c1, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c1_value_3 12345 column=default:c2, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c2_value_3 12345 column=default:c3, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c3_value_3 12345 column=default:c4, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c4_value_3 12345 column=default:c5, timestamp=1408396641845, value= 1 row(s) in 0.3580 seconds Is there any way we can get the old behavior back? To be more exact I expect the hbase shell scan to return the following: hbase(main):003:0* scan 'my_test' ROW COLUMN+CELL 12345 column=default:c0, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c0_value_3 12345 column=default:c1, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c1_value_3 12345 column=default:c2, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c2_value_3 12345 column=default:c3, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c3_value_3 12345 column=default:c4, timestamp=1408396641845, value=c4_value_3 1 row(s) in 0.3580 seconds Thanks, Cristian Armaselu Solution Architect Shared Technology Services 6021 Connection Drive Irving, TX 75039 carmas...@epsilon.com<mailto:carmas...@epsilon.com> [Epsilon_logo_PMS_wTag_horiz] The information contained in this communication is confidential, and is intended only for the sole use of the recipient named above.
