How to use mountable HDFS on Centos

Question

I want to use mountable hdfs on my virtual machine (Centos). But I dont know how to do this. Can someone tell me how to do this?

Answer 1

Hey. You can use the following commands to use mountable hdfs:

sudo yum install hadoop-hdfs-fuse 

To set up and test your mount point in a non-HA installation:

$ mkdir -p <mount_point>
$ hadoop-fuse-dfs dfs://<name_node_hostname>:<namenode_port> <mount_point>

where namenode_port is the NameNode's RPC port, dfs.namenode.servicerpc-address.

To set up and test your mount point in an HA installation:

$ mkdir -p <mount_point>
$ hadoop-fuse-dfs dfs://<nameservice_id> <mount_point>
