Hi,

For (a) & (d) Refer http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowManyMapsAndReduces

For (b), Package your job as .jar and invoke hadoop command as below. It
gets copied to all the data nodes.
E.g. $ bin/hadoop jar /usr/joe/wordcount.jar org.myorg.WordCount
/usr/joe/wordcount/input /usr/joe/wordcount/output
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowManyMapsAndReduces

For (c), As soon as you put come files they gets copied to all the name
nodes. You need not worry about physical location of data. By using hadoop
fs -ls/cat command you can verify your input files.

For (e)
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/
http://www.cloudera.com/resources/

thanks,
Thamizh
