Deploying GeoMesa HBase on Cloudera CDH 5.XΒΆ

Warning

Ensure that the CDH version you are using contains a compatible version of HBase. As of this writing, the latest CDH release is 5.16.x containing HBase 1.2, which is no longer supported by GeoMesa.

  • Download and extract the GeoMesa HBase distribution, as detailed in Setting up the HBase Command Line Tools. In the following steps, GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME refers to the extracted directory geomesa-hbase_2.11-$VERSION/.
  • Unpack, and add/modify GeoMesa env variables in the file $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/conf/geomesa-env.sh :
setvar HADOOP_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hadoop
setvar HADOOP_CONF_DIR /etc/hadoop/conf

hadoopCDH="1"

setvar HADOOP_COMMON_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hadoop
setvar HADOOP_HDFS_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hadoop-hdfs
setvar YARN_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hadoop-yarn
setvar HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hadoop-mapreduce

setvar ZOOKEEPER_HOME /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/zookeeper
  • Copy $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/dist/hbase/geomesa-hbase-distributed-runtime_2.11-$VERSION.jar to HDFS under hdfs:///hbase/lib
  • Create geomesa-site.xml under $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/conf and add (change [name_node] to your HDFS name node hostname, and set your GeoMesa version, e.g 2.11-2.0.0):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>

<configuration>
<property>
    <name>geomesa.hbase.coprocessor.path</name>
    <value>hdfs://[name_node]:8020/hbase/lib/geomesa-hbase-distributed-runtime_2.11-2.0.0.jar</value>
    <description>HDFS or local path to GeoMesa-HBase Coprocessor JAR. If a local path is provided it must be
      the same for all region servers. A path provided through the DataStore parameters will always
      override this property.
    </description>
    <final>false</final>
</property>
</configuration>
  • Symlink hbase-site.xml to the GeoMesa conf dir:
ln -s /etc/hbase/conf.cloudera.hbase/hbase-site.xml $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/conf/hbase-site.xml
  • Modify $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/bin/install-hbase.sh to set hbase_version to 1.2.0 at the top of the script.
  • Run the install-hbase.sh script, which will download JARs to the lib folder:
$GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/bin/install-hbase.sh
  • Add additional JARs from CDH HBase to the GeoMesa classpath:
ln -s /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hbase/lib/metrics-core-2.2.0.jar \
  $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/lib/metrics-core-2.2.0.jar;
ln -s /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hbase/lib/htrace-core-3.2.0-incubating.jar \
  $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/lib/htrace-core-3.2.0-incubating.jar;
  • All Set! Test client tools by ingesting the provided example data:
$GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/bin/geomesa-hbase ingest -c example-csv -s example-csv \
  -C example-csv $GEOMESA_HBASE_HOME/examples/ingest/csv/example.csv
