Marc Sturlese datanode can not connect to the namenode in a small hadoop cluster

Hey there I have a hadoop cluster build on 2 servers (2 laptops). One node (A)
contains the namenode, a datanode, the jobtraker and a tasktraker.

The other node(B) just has a datanode and a tasktraker.
I set up correctly hdfs with ./start-hdfs.sh

When I try to set up MapReduce with ./start-mapred.sh the TaskTraker of node (B) can not connect to the namenode. The tasktracker log will
keep throwing:

Mark Cejas seeking advice on word vectors

Hello all,

Hope all is well in the community. I am inquiring on how to apply hadoop to retrieve information from various blogs, news feeds, etc.. in a particular fashion.

I have identified three groups of word pairs that are valuable to me. I would like to explore the clustering patterns among particular URL's of these particular word pairs in their respective blog spaces, news feeds, etc.

So, given that I have an expec

wang zhengkui Two requirements on Hadoop

There are two requirements which I want to implement based on Hadoop. But , by now, I do not think that hadoop support them now. I am looking forward to your suggestion how to implement these. Firstly, if I want to let the reducers to fetch more partitions files from map out put, is that ok? For instance, now reducer one can fetch all the partition 1 from mappers, how I implement that reducer one can fetch all the partition 1 and also 2 to go to reducer 1? If can , How could I implement that?… Continue

Jason Venner A little more detail on how line oriented FileSplits work

This block written by Aaron Kimbal of Cloudera to core-user. Aaron Kimball to core-user Reply Follow up message A FileSplit is merely a description of the boundaries. e.g., "bytes 0 to 9999" and "bytes 10000 to 19999". The Mapper then interprets the boundaries described by a FileSplit in a way that makes sense at the data level. The FileSplit does not actually physically contain the data to be mapped over. So mapper 1 will open a file via the InputFormat and start reading at byte 0, and… Continue

Jason Venner Running Hadoop and Friends under windows.

This is from a post on the hbase mailing list: The key piece is that you must have a cygwin installation on the machine, and include the cygwin installation's bin directory in your windows system PATH environment variable. (Control Panel|System|Advanced|Environment Variables|System variables|Path There is always a constant confusion between the paths on the windows side (as seen by the jvm) and by the paths seen by the hadoop scripts through cygwin. You have to run the hadoop scripts from the… Continue

Jason Venner A Streaming Question from the Hadoop Core list.

A user is running into an interesting problem. hadoop jar ../contrib/streaming/hadoop-0.19.1-streaming.jar -mapper "/usr/bin/perl /home/hadoop/scripts/map_parse_log_r2.pl" -reducer "/usr/bin/perl /home/hadoop/scripts/reduce_parse_log.pl" -input /logs/*.log -output test9 The code I have works when given a small set of input files. However, I get the following error when attempting to run the code on a large set of input files: hadoop-hadoop-jobtracker-testdw0b00.log.2009-06-09:2009-06-09 15:43… Continue

Jason Venner I had a wonderful time at the Hadoop Summit

I hung out with some friends and made some new ones. I ran into my old buddys Htin and Sagar from Attributor.com, it was really good to see them. I also got to hang with a bunch friends, from Cloudera folk, Ted Dunning of DeepDyve, Michael Stack of Powerset, and some friends from Ning. A very good time was had. I listened to a number of fun presentations, and passed out lots of flyers for my book. There were over 700 people at the summit, including people form overseas. This is a big jump fr… Continue

Jason Venner Ensuring that your reduces are distributed across all of your machines

A user asked me a question today, he has a cluster with 16 reduce slots over a number of machines, and when he runs a reduce with 12 reduces, multiple reduces end up on single machines, and some machines are idle. At present the only way to work around this that I am aware of is to force the cluster level parameter mapred.tasktracker.reduce.tasks.maximum to 1, and restart the cluster. Continue

Jason Venner Setting the default file system or job tracker for a hadoop job.

You have 3 basic ways to set the defaults. you can set them in your -site.xml file (hadoop-site.xml, or mapred-site.xml and hdfs-site.xml file for 20+). you can set them on the command line if you are using the bin/hadoop script of your distribution and running your jobs via the jar command, -fs file_system_url or -jt jobtracker_host:port will override whatever the default is, when placed on the command line after the jar and before the actual jar_file. Finally you can set them on the configu… Continue

Jason Venner What is coming in Hadoop 20.

Cloudera has posted a very nice summary, http://www.cloudera.com/blog/2009/05/07/what%E2%80%99s-new-in-hadoop-core-020/ The big user visible change is the addition of the new API's for MapReduce where a context object is passed in to the configure, map/reduce and close that contains the jobconf equivalent, the output collector and the reporter and any other data people pack in. There are some issues with this at present so it is not ready for prime time. The preparation for the split of MapRe… Continue
