Setting up Hadoop single node setup on Mac OS X
Hello All, I am a beginning hadoop user. I am trying to install hadoop as part of a single-node setup. I read in the documentation that the supported platforms are GNU/Linux and Win32. I have a Mac OS X and wish to run the single-node setup. I am guessing I need to use some virtualization solution like VirtualBox to run Linux. If anyone has a better way of running hadoop on a mac, please kindly share your experiences. If this question is not appropriate for this mailing list, I apologize and please kindly let me know what is the best mailing list to post this question. Thanks Sriram

Hi I have detailed instructions online here: http://hadoopway.blogspot.com/ It works on MAC and all software is open source.

You don't need any virtualization. Mac OS X is Linux and runs Hadoop as is.

Good to know about the VirtualBox instructions. Here are a couple of other links that might help on single node: Single Node Setup http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/stable/single_node_setup.html Running_Hadoop_On_OS_X_10.5_64-bit_(Single-Node_Cluster) http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Running_Hadoop_On_OS_X_10.5_64-bit_(Single-Node_Cluster) Art Ignacio hortonworks.com On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 8:49 AM, Serge Blazhievsky < serge.blazhiyevs...@nice.com> wrote: > Hi > > I have detailed instructions online here: > > http://hadoopway.blogspot.com/ > > > It works on MAC and all software is open source. > > Serge > > On 2/26/12 8:28 PM, "Sriram Ganesan" wrote: > > >Hello All, > > > >I am a beginning hadoop user.

Re: Setting up Hadoop single node setup on Mac OS X
You could also use vmware Fusion on a MacŠ I do this when I'm creating a distributed hadoop cluster with a few data nodes, but just for a single node, you can install that on a Mac OSX, no need for virtualization.

Seconded, I've setup and run Hadoop CDH3 on a recent 10.7(.2) Mac. Works like a charm. Sent from my phone, please excuse my brevity.
