<h2 class="h3"> FS Shell </h2>
<div class="section">
<p>
      The FileSystem (FS) shell is invoked by 
      <span class="codefrag">bin/hadoop fs &lt;args&gt;</span>.
      All the FS shell commands take path URIs as arguments. The URI
      format is <em>scheme://autority/path</em>. For HDFS the scheme
      is <em>hdfs</em>, and for the local filesystem the scheme
      is <em>file</em>. The scheme and authority are optional. If not
      specified, the default scheme specified in the configuration is
      used. An HDFS file or directory such as <em>/parent/child</em>
      can be specified as <em>hdfs://namenodehost/parent/child</em> or
      simply as <em>/parent/child</em> (given that your configuration
      is set to point to <em>hdfs://namenodehost</em>). Most of the
      commands in FS shell behave like corresponding Unix
      commands. Differences are described with each of the
      commands. Error information is sent to <em>stderr</em> and the
      output is sent to <em>stdout</em>.
