Does default mahout programs runs over hadoop in cluster - hadoop

I have 3 operations from Mahout and I want them to run over Multi-Node Hadoop cluster.
Does these operations could run?
seq2sparse, trainnb, testnb
I try to run it, but it seems that all executes over one machine(master).

Can Luigi run remote Hadoop jobs?

If one of the tasks in the Luigi graph need to run on a remote Hadoop cluster, is that possible? The machine on which Luigi runs is different from the Hadoop cluster. Can luigi still check the if the HDFS file in the remote cluster exists?
I tried to find documentation for this but wasn't able to.
You can run a job that launches any script.
The HDFS target documentation is here:

Cloudera quickstart CDH 5.15 cluster is RUNNING slow

I have Cloudera quickstart CDH 5.15 cluster is very slow
when i run a simple hadoop command like "hadoop fs -ls" it takes almost 20 seconds
but when i try runnnig local commands like "ls" it is very fast please help me with this.
The quickstart VM requires 6-8 GB of RAM to work reliably.
But the JVM startup process for any hadoop command is going to be much much slower compared to other built-in shell commands that operate similarly. There's no way around that fact.
If you want the Hadoop ls command to be quicker, it would be beneficial to setup an actual distributed cluster with adequate memory for the Namenode process, which is what ls contacts

Type of clusters in hadoop

how can i differentiate hadoop standalone mode & pseudo distributed mode? Can anyone explain difference between all hadoop daemons as a single java process and separate java process
Hadoop standalone mode is running Hadoop commands without starting Hadoop daemons i.e. on local file system.
The pseudo distributed mode is running Hadoop daemons on a single machine.

Spark on Hadoop YARN - executor missing

I have a cluster of 3 macOS machines running Hadoop and Spark-1.5.2 (though with Spark-2.0.0 the same problem exists). With 'yarn' as the Spark master URL, I am running into a strange issue where tasks are only allocated to 2 of the 3 machines.
Based on the Hadoop dashboard (port 8088 on the master) it is clear that all 3 nodes are part of the cluster. However, any Spark job I run only uses 2 executors.
For example here is the "Executors" tab on a lengthy run of the JavaWordCount example:
"batservers" is the master. There should be an additional slave, "batservers2", but it's just not there.
Why might this be?
Note that none of my YARN or Spark (or, for that matter, HDFS) configurations are unusual, except provisions for giving the YARN resource- and node-managers extra memory.
Remarkably, all it took was a detailed look at the spark-submit help message to discover the answer:
YARN-only:
...
--num-executors NUM Number of executors to launch (Default: 2).
If I specify --num-executors 3 in my spark-submit command, the 3rd node is used.

Configuring pig relation with Hadoop

I'm having troubles understanding the relation between Hadoop and Pig.
I understand Pig's purpose is to hide the MapReduce pattern behind a scripting language, Pig Latin.
What I don't understand is how Hadoop and Pig are linked. So far, the only installation procedures seem to assume that pig is run on the same machine as the main hadoop node.
Indeed, it uses the hadoop configuration files.
Is this because pig only translates the scripts into mapreduce code and send them to hadoop ?
If that's the case, how could I configure Pig in order to make it send the scripts to a distant server ?
If not, does it mean we always need to have hadoop running within pig ?
Pig can run in two modes:
Local mode. In this mode Hadoop cluster is not used at all. All processes run in single JVM and files are read from the local filesystem. To run Pig in local mode, use the command:
pig -x local
MapReduce Mode. In this mode Pig converts scripts to MapReduce jobs and run them on Hadoop cluster. It is the default mode.
Cluster can be local or remote. Pig uses the HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME environment variable to find Hadoop installation on local machine (see Installing Pig).
If you want to connect to remote cluster, you should specify cluster parameters in the pig.properties file. Example for MRv1:
fs.default.name=hdfs://namenode_address:8020/
mapred.job.tracker=jobtracker_address:8021
You can also specify remote cluster address at the command line:
pig -fs namenode_address:8020 -jt jobtracker_address:8021
Hence, you can install Pig to any machine and connect to remote cluster. Pig includes Hadoop client, therefore you don't have to install Hadoop to use Pig.
