Configure snapshots
Snapshots are enabled by default, you must disable snapshots if you do not intend to use it. Snapshots do not affect HBase performance if they are not used.
Snapshots are on by default; to disable them, set the
hbase.snapshot.enabled
property in
hbase-site.xml
to false
:
<property>
<name>hbase.snapshot.enabled</name>
<value>
false
</value>
</property>
To enable snapshots after you have disabled them, set
hbase.snapshot.enabled
to true
.
