- <div class="section">
- <p>This document describes how to install, configure and manage non-trivial
- Hadoop clusters ranging from a few nodes to extremely large clusters with
- thousands of nodes.</p>
- <p>If you are looking to install Hadoop on a single machine to play
- with it, you can find relevant details <a href="quickstart.html">here</a>.

- <div class="section">
- <ol>

- <li>
- Make sure all <a href="quickstart.html#PreReqs">requisite</a> software
- is installed on all nodes in your cluster.

- <a name="N10036"></a><a name="Installation"></a>
- <h2 class="h3">Installation</h2>
- <div class="section">
- <p>Installing a Hadoop cluster typically involves unpacking the software
- on all the machines in the cluster.</p>
- <p>Typically one machine in the cluster is designated as the
- <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span> and another machine the as <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span>,
- exclusively. These are the <em>masters</em>. The rest of the machines in
- the cluster act as both <span class="codefrag">DataNode</span> <em>and</em>
- <span class="codefrag">TaskTracker</span>. These are the <em>slaves</em>.</p>
- <p>The root of the distribution is referred to as
- <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HOME</span>. All machines in the cluster usually have the same
- <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HOME</span> path.</p>
- </div>
-
-
- <a name="N10061"></a><a name="Configuration"></a>
- <h2 class="h3">Configuration</h2>
- <div class="section">
- <p>The following sections describe how to configure a Hadoop cluster.</p>
- <a name="N1006A"></a><a name="Configuration+Files"></a>
- <h3 class="h4">Configuration Files</h3>
- <p>Hadoop configuration is driven by two important configuration files
- found in the <span class="codefrag">conf/</span> directory of the distribution:</p>
- <ol>
-
- <li>
-
- <a href="http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/hadoop-default.html">hadoop-default.xml</a> - Read-only
- default configuration.
- </li>
-
- <li>
-
- <em>hadoop-site.xml</em> - Site-specific configuration.
- </li>
-
- </ol>
- <p>To learn more about how the Hadoop framework is controlled by these
- configuration files, look
- <a href="api/org/apache/hadoop/conf/Configuration.html">here</a>.</p>
- <p>Additionally, you can control the Hadoop scripts found in the
- <span class="codefrag">bin/</span> directory of the distribution, by setting site-specific
- values via the <span class="codefrag">conf/hadoop-env.sh</span>.</p>
- <a name="N10097"></a><a name="Site+Configuration"></a>
- <h3 class="h4">Site Configuration</h3>
- <p>To configure the the Hadoop cluster you will need to configure the
- <em>environment</em> in which the Hadoop daemons execute as well as
- the <em>configuration parameters</em> for the Hadoop daemons.</p>
- <p>The Hadoop daemons are <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span>/<span class="codefrag">DataNode</span>
- and <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span>/<span class="codefrag">TaskTracker</span>.</p>
- <a name="N100B5"></a><a name="Configuring+the+Environment+of+the+Hadoop+Daemons"></a>
- <h4>Configuring the Environment of the Hadoop Daemons</h4>
- <p>Administrators should use the <span class="codefrag">conf/hadoop-env.sh</span> script
- to do site-specific customization of the Hadoop daemons' process
- environment.</p>
- <p>At the very least you should specify the
- <span class="codefrag">JAVA_HOME</span> so that it is correctly defined on each
- remote node.</p>
- <p>Other useful configuration parameters that you can customize
- include:</p>
- <ul>
-
- <li>
-
- <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_LOG_DIR</span> - The directory where the daemons'
- log files are stored. They are automatically created if they don't
- exist.
- </li>
-
- <li>
-
- <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_HEAPSIZE</span> - The maximum amount of heapsize
- to use, in MB e.g. <span class="codefrag">2000MB</span>.
- </li>
-
- </ul>
- <a name="N100DD"></a><a name="Configuring+the+Hadoop+Daemons"></a>
- <h4>Configuring the Hadoop Daemons</h4>
- <p>This section deals with important parameters to be specified in the
- <span class="codefrag">conf/hadoop-site.xml</span> for the Hadoop cluster.</p>

- <h4>Slaves</h4>
- <p>Typically you choose one machine in the cluster to act as the
- <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span> and one machine as to act as the
- <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span>, exclusively. The rest of the machines act as
- both a <span class="codefrag">DataNode</span> and <span class="codefrag">TaskTracker</span> and are
- referred to as <em>slaves</em>.</p>
- <p>List all slave hostnames or IP addresses in your
- <span class="codefrag">conf/slaves</span> file, one per line.</p>
- <a name="N102F9"></a><a name="Logging"></a>
- <h4>Logging</h4>
- <p>Hadoop uses the <a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/">Apache
- log4j</a> via the <a href="http://commons.apache.org/logging/">Apache
- Commons Logging</a> framework for logging. Edit the
- <span class="codefrag">conf/log4j.properties</span> file to customize the Hadoop
- daemons' logging configuration (log-formats and so on).</p>
- <a name="N1030D"></a><a name="History+Logging"></a>
- <h5>History Logging</h5>
- <p> The job history files are stored in central location
- <span class="codefrag"> hadoop.job.history.location </span> which can be on DFS also,
- whose default value is <span class="codefrag">${HADOOP_LOG_DIR}/history</span>.
- The history web UI is accessible from job tracker web UI.</p>
- <p> The history files are also logged to user specified directory
- <span class="codefrag">hadoop.job.history.user.location</span>
- which defaults to job output directory. The files are stored in
- "_logs/history/" in the specified directory. Hence, by default
- they will be in "mapred.output.dir/_logs/history/". User can stop
- logging by giving the value <span class="codefrag">none</span> for
- <span class="codefrag">hadoop.job.history.user.location</span>
- </p>
- <p> User can view the history logs summary in specified directory
- using the following command <br>
-
- <span class="codefrag">$ bin/hadoop job -history output-dir</span>
- <br>
- This command will print job details, failed and killed tip
- details. <br>
- More details about the job such as successful tasks and
- task attempts made for each task can be viewed using the
- following command <br>
-
- <span class="codefrag">$ bin/hadoop job -history all output-dir</span>
- <br>
- </p>
- <p>Once all the necessary configuration is complete, distribute the files
- to the <span class="codefrag">HADOOP_CONF_DIR</span> directory on all the machines,
- typically <span class="codefrag">${HADOOP_HOME}/conf</span>.</p>

- <div class="section">
- <p>The HDFS and the Map-Reduce components are rack-aware.</p>
- <p>The <span class="codefrag">NameNode</span> and the <span class="codefrag">JobTracker</span> obtains the
- <span class="codefrag">rack id</span> of the slaves in the cluster by invoking an API
- <a href="api/org/apache/hadoop/net/DNSToSwitchMapping.html#resolve(java.util.List)">resolve</a> in an administrator configured
- module. The API resolves the slave's DNS name (also IP address) to a
- rack id. What module to use can be configured using the configuration
- item <span class="codefrag">topology.node.switch.mapping.impl</span>. The default
- implementation of the same runs a script/command configured using
- <span class="codefrag">topology.script.file.name</span>. If topology.script.file.name is
- not set, the rack id <span class="codefrag">/default-rack</span> is returned for any
- passed IP address. The additional configuration in the Map-Reduce
- part is <span class="codefrag">mapred.cache.task.levels</span> which determines the number
- of levels (in the network topology) of caches. So, for example, if it is
- the default value of 2, two levels of caches will be constructed -
- one for hosts (host -> task mapping) and another for racks
- (rack -> task mapping).
