I have a large hadoop cluster (24 nodes). I have CLI access to these nodes. First few is not running Cloudera Manager (cloudera-scm-server).
How can I find out which node is running Cloudera Manager?
Any help is appreciated.
Cloudera Manager will have two services. one is Server another is agents.
As you said you have CLI access to all the node. So run below command on all the nodes to find which is server and open (server will be running on only 1 machine)
sudo service cloudera-scm-server status
Another simple method to find CDH Server address
ssh to any node and move to /etc/cloudera-scm-agent. There you will find config.ini file, in that you will find server_host address

I have 12 node cluster. Its Hardware information are :
NameNode : CPU Core i3 2.7 Ghz | 8GB RAM | 500 GB HDD
DataNode : CPU Core i3 2.7 Ghz | 2GB RAM | 500 GB HDD
I have installed the hadoop 2.7.2. I am using normal hadoop installation process on ubuntu and it work fine. But I want to add client machine.and I have no such clue that how to add client machine.
Question :
Installing process of Client machine. ?
How to run any script of pig/hive on that client machine ?
Client should have same copy of Hadoop Distribution and configuration which is present at Namenode then Only Client will come to know on which node Job tracker/Resourcemanager is running, and IP of Namenode to access HDFS data.
Also you need to update /etc/hosts of client machine with IP addresses and hostnames of namenode and datanode.
Note that, you shouldn’t start any hadoop service on client machine.
Steps to follow on client machine:
create an user account on the cluster, say user1
create an account on client machine with the same name: user1
configure client machine to access the cluster machines (ssh w\out passphrase i.e, password less login)
copy/get a hadoop distribution same as cluster to client machine and extract it to /home/user1/hadoop-2.x.x
copy(or Edit) the hadoop configuration files (*-site.xml) from Namenode of the cluster - from this client will know where the Namenode/resourcemanager is running.
Set environment variables: JAVA_HOME, HADOOP_HOME (/home/user1/hadoop-2.x.x)
Set hadoop bin to your path: export PATH=$HADOOP_HOME/bin:$PATH
test it out: hadoop fs -ls / which should list the root directory of the cluster hdfs.
you may face some issues like privileges, may need to set JAVA_HOME places like conf/hadoop-env.sh on client machine. update/comment any error you get.
Answers to more questions from comments:
How to load data from client node to hdfs ? - Just run hadoop fs commands from client machine: hadoop fs -put /home/user1/data/* /user/user1/data - you can also write shell-scripts that would run these command(s) if you need to run them many times.
Why I am installing hadoop on the client if we only use ssh to connect remotely to the master node ?
because client need to communicate with cluster, and need to know
where cluster nodes are.
client will be running hadoop jobs
like hadoop fs commands, hive queries, hadoop jar commnads, spark
jobs, developing mapreduce jobs etc for which client will need
hadoop binaries on client node.
Basically you are not only using the ssh to
connect, but you are performing some operations on hadoop cluster from
client node so you would need hadoop binaries.
ssh is used by
hadoop binaries on client node, when you run such operations like hadoop fs
-ls/ from client node to cluster. (remember adding $HADOOP_HOME/bin to PATH as part of installation process above)
when you are saying "we only use ssh" - that sounds to me like when you want to make changes/access hadoop configuration files from cluster you are connecting using ssh to cluster nodes - you do this as part of administrative work but when you need to run hadoop commands/jobs against cluster from client node you dont need to ssh manually - hadoop installation on client node will take care of it.
with out hadoop instalations how can you run hadoop commands/jobs/queries from client node to cluster?
3. should user name 'user1' must be same ? what if it is different ? - it will work. you can install hadoop on client node under group user say: qa or dev, and all users on client node as sudo under that group. than when user1 on client node need to run any hadoop job on cluster: user1 should be able to sudo -i -u qa and then run hadoop command from it.
I want to ask how can I run the hadoop balancer? I've tried before on the namenode to run hadoop balancer command, but it has no effect at all (my new datanode still empty). I also read that hadoop balancer is not run on namenode but on client node. So what is the client node, how can I configure it, and how can client node access the hadoop file system?
Thanks all, I need your suggest
Client node is also know as edge node, Usually all the developers in a organization will not have access to all nodes on cluster. So for developers to accesss cluster usually we will have a Client node. You need to install hadoop-client packages on client node. If you are using cloudera RPM based installation, you can use below command.
sudo yum install hadoop-client
After client node installation update your configuration files like core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml and other required files. Now when you execute hadoop CLI commands, they will be executed on cluster.
Balancer can be run from any node in the cluster. It can be a client machine/any node in cluster.
sudo -u hdfs hdfs balancer
Regarding newly added datanode, Just check in the namenode web UI if your node is added ? If you are able to see there, just check logs.
Can anyone please tell how to create a hadoop 2 node cluster ?i have 2 Virual machines both have hadoop single node setup installed properly,please tell how to form 2 node cluster from that ,and mention proper network setup for that.Thanks in Advance.i am using hadoop -1.0.3 version.
Hi can you do one thing for network configuration of vms.
Make sure of the network connect of virtual machine setting of hostonly.
And add two hostname and ips in /etc/hosts file.
add two hostnames in $HADOOP_HOME/conf/slaves file.
Make sure of secondary namenode hostname in $HADOOP_HOME/conf/masters file.
Then make sure same configuration on two machine.
hadoop namenode -format
start-all.sh
Best of luck.
I have just installed Cloudera 4.7 and was wondering how I can add more data nodes to a cluster in Cloudera (either through the GUI or through Ubuntu terminal). Also, I was wondering if Cloudera automatically does this for me.
Thanks in advance.
If you are using Cloudera Manager, you can add new hosts to cluster using the Cloudera Manager UI.
Go to Hosts tab on top--> Click on "Add New Hosts to Cluster"
If you are not using Cloudera Manager, Then follow below steps:
1) Add new node's DNS name to the conf/slaves file on the master node
2) Then log in to the new slave node and execute:
$ cd path/to/hadoop
$ bin/hadoop-daemon.sh start datanode
$ bin/hadoop-daemon.sh start tasktracker
You don't need to restart the cluster.Node can be added dynamically.
Pseudo-Distributed single node cluster implementation
I am using window 7 with CYGWIN and installed hadoop-1.0.3 successfully. I still start services job tracker,task tracker and namenode on port (localhost:50030,localhost:50060 and localhost:50070).I have completed single node implementation.
Now I want to implement Pseudo-Distributed multiple node cluster . I don't understand how to divide in master and slave system through network ips?
For your ssh problem just follow the link of single node cluster :
http://www.michael-noll.com/tutorials/running-hadoop-on-ubuntu-linux-single-node-cluster/
and yes, you need to specify the ip's of master and slave in conf file
for that you can refer this url :
http://www.michael-noll.com/tutorials/running-hadoop-on-ubuntu-linux-multi-node-cluster/
I hope this helps.
Try to create number of VM you want to add in your cluster.Make sure that those VM are having the same hadoop version .
Figure out the IPs of each VM.
you will find files named master and slaves in $HADOOP_HOME/conf mention the IP of VM to conf/master file which you want to treat as master and and do the same with conf/slaves
with slave nodes IP.
Make sure these nodes are having Passwordless-ssh connection.
Format your namenode and then run start-all.sh.
Thanks,
