How can I know whether my cluster has been setup using Hortonworks,Cloudera or normal installation of hadoop components?
Also how can I know the port number of various services?
It is difficult to identify hadoop distribution from port number, since Apache, Hortonworks, Cloudera distros uses different port numbers
Other options are to check for cluster management service agents (Cloudera Manager - agent start up script - /etc/init.d/cloudera-scm-agent , Hortonworks - Ambari agent start up script - /etc/init.d/ambari-agent, Vanilla Apache hadoop will not have any agents in the server
Another option is to check hadoop classpath, below command can be used to get the classpath.
`hadoop classpath`
Most of hadoop distributions include distro name in the classpath, If classpath doesn't contains any of below keywords, distribution/setup will be Apache/Normal installation.
hdp - (Hortonworks)
cdh - (Cloudera)
The simplest way is to run hadoop version command and in output you will see, what version of Hadoop you are having and also which distribution and its version you are running with. If you will find words like cdh or hdp then cdh stands for cloudera and hdp for hortonworks.
For example, here I am having cloudera and with hadoop version command below is output.
Here in first line Hadoop version followed by hadoop distribution and its version.
Hope this will help.
Command hdfs version will give you version of the hadoop and its distribution
I have a Cloudera Distribution installed as a 5 Node Cluster. Now I do not want to use the Hbase parcel that comes with cloudera,
but instead I want to use only HDFS from the cloudera setup and an opensource version of Hbase.
So my question is will this work or I will have to install normal open-source version of Apache Hadoop for HDFS and then go forward with the Opensource version of Apache Hbase on top of it.
As long as the version of hadoop matches the version of used by the hadoop client used by the version of hbase matches it should all work.
In hadoop 2.6 with hbase 0.98 is needed to install zookeeper explicitly ? because when I run hadoop and hbase I have a process named "HQuorumPeer" and I think this is zookeeper. Do hbase include zookeeper or I should install it seperately ?

If you are in Standalone mode, you don't need to, otherwise it can be better to install it on a diffrent cluster.
I have configured a cluster hadoop using cloudera CDH 5.3.
I created a 4 nodes cluster and now want to install mahout on it.
I did add the .jar file of mahout in the cluster but i don't know what to do next.
Should I make the installation in the 4 nodes?
I have an already up and running Hadoop, 5-node cluster. I want to install Impala on the HDFS cluster without the Cloudera Manager. Can anyone supposedly guide me through the process or a link of the same.
Thanks.
