关于 hbase Table already exists: xxx （表）问题。

问题如下：
hbase(main):004:0> exists ‘test’

Table test does not exist

0 row(s) in 0.0980 seconds

hbase(main):005:0> create ‘test’,‘cf’

ERROR: Table already exists: test!

Here is some help for this command:

Create table; pass table name, a dictionary of specifications per

column family, and optionally a dictionary of table configuration.

Dictionaries are described below in the GENERAL NOTES section.

Examples:

hbase> create ‘t1’, {NAME => ‘f1’, VERSIONS => 5}

hbase> create ‘t1’, {NAME => ‘f1’}, {NAME => ‘f2’}, {NAME => ‘f3’}

hbase> # The above in shorthand would be the following:

hbase> create ‘t1’, ‘f1’, ‘f2’, ‘f3’

hbase> create ‘t1’, {NAME => ‘f1’, VERSIONS => 1, TTL => 2592000, BLOCKCACHE => true}

hbase> create ‘t1’, ‘f1’, {SPLITS => [‘10’, ‘20’, ‘30’, ‘40’]}

hbase> create ‘t1’, ‘f1’, {SPLITS_FILE => ‘splits.txt’}

hbase> # Optionally pre-split the table into NUMREGIONS, using

hbase> # SPLITALGO (“HexStringSplit”, “UniformSplit” or classname)

hbase> create ‘t1’, ‘f1’, {NUMREGIONS => 15, SPLITALGO => ‘HexStringSplit’

解决方法：

通过$hbase zkcli命令进入zookeeper client模式
在zk client模式下输入ls /hbase/table命令看到zombie table
然后使用rm/hbase/table/TABLE_NAME命令删除zombie table，重启hbase即可
