Shreya To add on. From cloudera website you would get images for different VMs like VM Ware, Virtual Box etc. Choose the appropriate one for your use as per your availabe software. To your question, it is definitely possible to run map reduce progarms from Cloudera VM and in fact it is the most comfortable way(at least for me) to test my map reduce code. When you are on cloudera VM to test your plain map reduce code in fact you don't even need to pack your source code into jar, deploy the same and then execute it.(now you might be doing development in windows and deployment and test in linux) To test your code just follow the sequence of steps
- Download and install eclipse on the VM (any IDE you are on) - Create your project with Mapper, Reducer and Driver classes (may be a single file also would be fine as per your convenience) - Click on the class that contains your main method, give run as java application - It'd do the job for you. The few things you need to keep in mind are - Use very minimal test data. Larger data volumes would lead to very slow execution due to limited resources.(just use VM to test the logic) - Normally in our driver class we get the input and output directory from command line when we deploy as jars and run the same, but when you run from eclipse just alter the lines of code specifying input and output as For input and output directory in hdfs FileInputFormat.addInputPath(job, new Path("hdfs://localhost/<full path in hdfs>")); FileOutputFormat.setOutputPath(job, new Path(hdfs://localhost/<full path in hdfs>")); For input and output directory in lfs FileInputFormat.addInputPath(job, new Path("<full path in lfs>")); FileOutputFormat.setOutputPath(job, new Path("<full path in lfs>")); Hope it helps Regards Bejoy.K.S On Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 2:40 PM, Bejoy KS <bejoy.had...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Shreya > You can copy files from windows to the linux on VM using any ftp > tools like filezilla. > Take a terminal on your linix, type ifconfig , the value given under 'inet > addr:' would be your IP address. > Use this IP address and default port (22) to connect to liux image from > Windows through filezilla.
