Hi Sujit, I'd recommend you look at this tutorial on interacting with HDFS: http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/module2.html#interacting
When you create a folder '/foodir' in HDFS, that folder will be in the top level of HDFS. If you were to create a directory 'foodir' (without the '/'), that directory would go into your user's folder on HDFS - '/user/<username>/foodir. You can view HDFS directory listings via: ~bin/hadoop dfs -lsr / Rohit Bakhshi www.hortonworks.com (http://www.hortonworks.com/) On Friday, February 17, 2012 at 12:18 PM, Sujit Dhamale wrote: > Hi,i am new to Hadoop > > i install Hadoop cluster on my Ubuntu > > using Below command i created one folder "*foodir*" > *~bin/hadoop dfs -mkdir /foodir* > > in my file system , what will be location of folder "*foodir*" ??
