Description

This is an error on online documation. (http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#_get_started_with_hbase ).

To locate the error you can go to
2.2. Get Started with HBase
Example 2. Example hbase-site.xml for Standalone HBase

The config example here do not specify a port for the region server. So When you go to the 2.4 Advanced - Fully Distributed (http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#quickstart_fully_distributed). You will hit error.
Because the region server will conflict with backup master or master. As they use the same port.

People who read this section are always newbee, this will confuse them.
