Will using hadoop 20-append with hbase 90.3 break?

Trying to install hbase, but the word on the street is that if I don't use a hadoop from the 20-append branch, I'll lose data. This tutorial says that it will work with 90.2, but doesn't discuss 9开发者_如何转开发0.3.

Is there a newer version of 20-append that I should be using with 90.3, or will the same version of hadoop append work with it?

The same version of hadoop with append will work with it.

In fact, HBase 0.90.* will work even without append, but you will run the risk of data loss and corruption if (when) a node fails in an unlucky way.
