Class BaseLoadBalancer

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.balancer.BaseLoadBalancer

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configurable, LoadBalancer, Stoppable

Direct Known Subclasses:

FavoredNodeLoadBalancer, SimpleLoadBalancer, StochasticLoadBalancer

public abstract class BaseLoadBalancer
extends Object
implements LoadBalancer

The base class for load balancers. It provides the the functions used to by AssignmentManager to assign regions in the edge cases. It doesn't provide an implementation of the actual balancing algorithm.

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration	getConf()
Map<HRegionInfo,ServerName>	immediateAssignment(List<HRegionInfo> regions, List<ServerName> servers) Generates an immediate assignment plan to be used by a new master for regions in transition that do not have an already known destination.

setConf

public void setConf(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf)

Specified by:

setConf in interface org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configurable

setSlop

protected void setSlop(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf)

getConf

public org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration getConf()

Specified by:

getConf in interface org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configurable

setClusterStatus

public void setClusterStatus(ClusterStatus st)

Description copied from interface: LoadBalancer

Set the current cluster status. This allows a LoadBalancer to map host name to a server

Specified by:

setClusterStatus in interface LoadBalancer

setMasterServices

public void setMasterServices(MasterServices masterServices)

Description copied from interface: LoadBalancer

Set the master service.

Specified by:

setMasterServices in interface LoadBalancer

needsBalance

protected boolean needsBalance(ClusterLoadState cs)

roundRobinAssignment

public Map<ServerName,List<HRegionInfo>> roundRobinAssignment(List<HRegionInfo> regions,
                                                     List<ServerName> servers)

Generates a bulk assignment plan to be used on cluster startup using a simple round-robin assignment.

Takes a list of all the regions and all the servers in the cluster and returns a map of each server to the regions that it should be assigned.

Currently implemented as a round-robin assignment. Same invariant as load balancing, all servers holding floor(avg) or ceiling(avg). TODO: Use block locations from HDFS to place regions with their blocks

Specified by:

roundRobinAssignment in interface LoadBalancer

Parameters:

regions - all regions

servers - all servers

Returns:

map of server to the regions it should take, or null if no assignment is possible (ie. no regions or no servers)

immediateAssignment

public Map<HRegionInfo,ServerName> immediateAssignment(List<HRegionInfo> regions,
                                              List<ServerName> servers)

Generates an immediate assignment plan to be used by a new master for regions in transition that do not have an already known destination. Takes a list of regions that need immediate assignment and a list of all available servers. Returns a map of regions to the server they should be assigned to. This method will return quickly and does not do any intelligent balancing. The goal is to make a fast decision not the best decision possible. Currently this is random.

Specified by:

immediateAssignment in interface LoadBalancer

Parameters:

regions -

servers -

Returns:

map of regions to the server it should be assigned to

randomAssignment

public ServerName randomAssignment(HRegionInfo regionInfo,
                          List<ServerName> servers)

Used to assign a single region to a random server.

Specified by:

randomAssignment in interface LoadBalancer

Parameters:

regionInfo - Region for which this selection is being done.

Returns:

Servername

retainAssignment

public Map<ServerName,List<HRegionInfo>> retainAssignment(Map<HRegionInfo,ServerName> regions,
                                                 List<ServerName> servers)

Generates a bulk assignment startup plan, attempting to reuse the existing assignment information from META, but adjusting for the specified list of available/online servers available for assignment.

Takes a map of all regions to their existing assignment from META. Also takes a list of online servers for regions to be assigned to. Attempts to retain all assignment, so in some instances initial assignment will not be completely balanced.

Any leftover regions without an existing server to be assigned to will be assigned randomly to available servers.

Specified by:

retainAssignment in interface LoadBalancer

Parameters:

regions - regions and existing assignment from meta

servers - available servers

Returns:

map of servers and regions to be assigned to them

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws HBaseIOException

Description copied from interface: LoadBalancer

                ServerName sn)

Description copied from interface: LoadBalancer

regionOffline

public void regionOffline(HRegionInfo regionInfo)

Description copied from interface: LoadBalancer

isStopped

public boolean isStopped()

Specified by:

isStopped in interface Stoppable

Returns:

True if Stoppable.stop(String) has been closed.

stop

public void stop(String why)

Description copied from interface: Stoppable

Specified by:

stop in interface Stoppable

Parameters:

why - Why we're stopping.
