It is possible, but what would you gain from this? One DN can handle several disks parallely just fine I think. > I mean, I want to install several hadoop that have different conf. > Specifically, one hadoop has 5 datanode and other hadoop has 10 datanode.

Not possible without certain set of configuration changes per instance. You may make use of a set of directories and using `hadoop-daemon.sh --config <conf_dir_for_this_instance> start datanode` to start each of the DN though. -- Harsh J www.harshj.com
