Yes all versions are the same. I installed hadoop on master and copied the folder to other machines so the install should be identical.
BTW I resolved the below issue by making all slaves visible to the client machine. Previously only master was visible to the client. However I have another problem when running the job. For some reason the slave host names are resolved to different names than the ones I gave in hadoop config. Each vm has two nic cards. I configured eth1 as hslave1, hslave2.... eth0 is not used by hadoop at all but when running the job it is somehow resolving slave name as machine name instead of "hslave1" and that is causing communication issues between slaves I think. I even specified property "mapred.tasktracker.dns.interface" to "eth1" but that didn't help. I saw that one can also specifiy slave.host.name property but I am trying to avoid that since that would change the hadoop install on each slave. Any thoughts to resolve the issue would be appreciated...
