  252. <h2 class="h3">Installation</h2>
  253. <div class="section">
  254. <p>Installing a Hadoop cluster typically involves unpacking the software
  255. on all the machines in the cluster.</p>
  256. <p>Typically one machine in the cluster is designated as the
  257. <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span> and another machine the as <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span>,
  258. exclusively. These are the <em>masters</em>. The rest of the machines in
  259. the cluster act as both <span class="codefrag">DataNode</span> <em>and</em>
  260. <span class="codefrag">TaskTracker</span>. These are the <em>slaves</em>.</p>
  261. <p>The root of the distribution is referred to as
  262. <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HOME</span>. All machines in the cluster usually have the same
  263. <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HOME</span> path.</p>

  266. <h2 class="h3">Configuration</h2>
  267. <div class="section">
  268. <p>The following sections describe how to configure a Hadoop cluster.</p>
  269. <a name="N10069"></a><a name="Configuration+Files"></a>
  270. <h3 class="h4">Configuration Files</h3>
  271. <p>Hadoop configuration is driven by two important configuration files
  272. found in the <span class="codefrag">conf/</span> directory of the distribution:</p>
  273. <ol>
  274. <li>
  275. <a href="http://lucene.apache.org/hadoop/hadoop-default.html">hadoop-default.xml</a> - Read-only
  276. default configuration.
  277. </li>
  278. <li>
  279. <em>hadoop-site.xml</em> - Site-specific configuration.
  280. </li>
  281. </ol>
  282. <p>To learn more about how the Hadoop framework is controlled by these
  283. configuration files, look
  284. <a href="api/org/apache/hadoop/conf/Configuration.html">here</a>.</p>
  285. <p>Additionally, you can control the Hadoop scripts found in the
  286. <span class="codefrag">bin/</span> directory of the distribution, by setting site-specific
  287. values via the <span class="codefrag">conf/hadoop-env.sh</span>.</p>
  288. <a name="N10096"></a><a name="Site+Configuration"></a>
  289. <h3 class="h4">Site Configuration</h3>
  290. <p>To configure the the Hadoop cluster you will need to configure the
  291. <em>environment</em> in which the Hadoop daemons execute as well as
  292. the <em>configuration parameters</em> for the Hadoop daemons.</p>
  293. <p>The Hadoop daemons are <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span>/<span class="codefrag">DataNode</span>
  294. and <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span>/<span class="codefrag">TaskTracker</span>.</p>
  295. <a name="N100B4"></a><a name="Configuring+the+Environment+of+the+Hadoop+Daemons"></a>
  296. <h4>Configuring the Environment of the Hadoop Daemons</h4>
  297. <p>Administrators should use the <span class="codefrag">conf/hadoop-env.sh</span> script
  298. to do site-specific customization of the Hadoop daemons' process
  299. environment.</p>
  300. <p>At the very least you should specify the
  301. <span class="codefrag">JAVA_HOME</span> so that it is correctly defined on each
  302. remote node.</p>
  303. <p>Other useful configuration parameters that you can customize
  304. include:</p>
  305. <ul>
  306. <li>
  307. <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_LOG_DIR</span> - The directory where the daemons'
  308. log files are stored. They are automatically created if they don't
  309. exist.
  310. </li>
  311. <li>
  312. <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HEAPSIZE</span> - The maximum amount of heapsize
  313. to use, in MB e.g. <span class="codefrag">2000MB</span>.
  314. </li>
  315. </ul>
