James P. White commented on HADOOP-952:
---------------------------------------
I tried out the v4-tar scripts and they work fine. The choice of the "start-"
prefix was reflecting that the cluster nodes were being started, but obviously
your choice is fine.
One thing that might be worthwhile adding is a HADOOP_HOME setting in the AMI
perhaps with a PATH update too. That could be with a "/root/hadoop-env.sh"
file and/or a "/usr/local/hadoop-current" symlink or the like.
I see how the HADOOP_VERSION in the local env.sh works and selects the right
AMI, and maybe avoiding the duplicate settings is the right thing, but with the
way it is now it doesn't "feel" like Hadoop is "installed" in the AMI. But
since I'm a cluster newbie. this may be something I'll change my mind on.
And speaking of that, the Hadoop version thing being in those jar file names
seems like a problem too.
Any notion what's wrong with my attempt to run "bin/hadoop jar
hadoop-0.11.1-test.jar DFSCIOTest -write "?

> HADOOP-884 makes it easy to run Hadoop on an EC2 cluster, but building an AMI
> (Abstract Machine Image) can take a little while. Amazon EC2 supports shared
> AMIs
> (http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?entryID=530&ref=featured),
> so we could provide publically available AMIs for each Hadoop release.
