ALM-19026 Damaged WAL Files in HBase

Alarm Description

The system checks the hdfs://hacluster/hbase/corrupt directory on the HDFS of each HBase service every 120 seconds. This alarm is generated when there are WAL files in the /hbase/corrupt directory.

This alarm is cleared when the /hbase/corrupt directory does not exist or does not contain WAL files.

This alarm applies only to MRS 3.3.0 or later.

hdfs://hacluster indicates the name of the file system used by HBase, and /hbase indicates the root directory of HBase in the file system. You can log in to FusionInsight Manager, choose Cluster > Services > HBase and click Configuration. Search for fs.defaultFS and hbase.data.rootdir.
