HBaseAdmin (Apache HBase - Client 2.4.13 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.HBaseAdmin

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, Abortable, Admin
```
@InterfaceAudience.Private
public class HBaseAdmin
extends Object
implements Admin
```
HBaseAdmin is no longer a client API. It is marked InterfaceAudience.Private indicating that this is an HBase-internal class as defined in https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/InterfaceClassification.html There are no guarantees for backwards source / binary compatibility and methods or class can change or go away without deprecation. Use Connection.getAdmin() to obtain an instance of Admin instead of constructing an HBaseAdmin directly.
Connection should be an unmanaged connection obtained via ConnectionFactory.createConnection(Configuration)

- Method Detail
  - getOperationTimeout
```
public int getOperationTimeout()
```
    Description copied from interface: Admin
    
    Return the operation timeout for a rpc call.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getOperationTimeout in interface Admin
    
    See Also:
    
    Admin.getSyncWaitTimeout()
  - getSyncWaitTimeout
```
public int getSyncWaitTimeout()
```
    Description copied from interface: Admin
    
    Return the blocking wait time for an asynchronous operation. Can be configured by hbase.client.sync.wait.timeout.msec.
    For several operations, such as createTable, deleteTable, etc, the rpc call will finish right after we schedule a procedure at master side, so the timeout will not be controlled by the above Admin.getOperationTimeout(). And timeout value here tells you how much time we will wait until the procedure at master side is finished.
    In general, you can consider that the implementation for XXXX method is just a XXXXAsync().get(getSyncWaitTimeout(), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS).
    
    Specified by:
    
    getSyncWaitTimeout in interface Admin

    Description copied from interface: Admin
    
    Offline specified region from master's in-memory state. It will not attempt to reassign the region as in unassign. This API can be used when a region not served by any region server and still online as per Master's in memory state. If this API is incorrectly used on active region then master will loose track of that region. This is a special method that should be used by experts or hbck.

    offline in interface Admin
    
    Parameters:
    
    regionName - Region to offline.

```
    Description copied from interface: Admin
    
    Take a snapshot and wait for the server to complete that snapshot (blocking). Snapshots are considered unique based on the name of the snapshot. Snapshots are taken sequentially even when requested concurrently, across all tables. Attempts to take a snapshot with the same name (even a different type or with different parameters) will fail with a SnapshotCreationException indicating the duplicate naming. Snapshot names follow the same naming constraints as tables in HBase. See TableName.isLegalFullyQualifiedTableName(byte[]). You should probably use Admin.snapshot(String, org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TableName) or Admin.snapshot(byte[], org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TableName) unless you are sure about the type of snapshot that you want to take.
    
    Specified by:
    
    snapshot in interface Admin
    
    Parameters:
    
    snapshotDesc - snapshot to take
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - or we lose contact with the master.
    
    SnapshotCreationException - if snapshot failed to be taken

    Description copied from interface: Admin
    Check the current state of the passed snapshot. There are three possible states:
