Starting around the time of Hadoop version 2.7.0, the Hadoop PMC got into the habit of calling out new minor releases on their major version 2 release line as not stable / production ready. As such, HBase expressly advises downstream users to avoid running on top of these releases. Note that additionally the 2.8.1 release was given the same caveat by the Hadoop PMC. For reference, see the release announcements for link:https://s.apache.org/hadoop-2.7.0-announcement[Apache Hadoop 2.7.0], link:https://s.apache.org/hadoop-2.8.0-announcement[Apache Hadoop 2.8.0], link:https://s.apache.org/hadoop-2.8.1-announcement[Apache Hadoop 2.8.1], and link:https://s.apache.org/hadoop-2.9.0-announcement[Apache Hadoop 2.9.0].
