Re: Configuring SSH - is it required? for a psedo distriburted mode?

I never configure the ssh feature. Not for running on a single node and not for a full size cluster. I simply start all the required deamons (name/data/job/task) and configure them on which ports each can be reached. Niels Basjes On May 16, 2013 4:55 PM, Raj Hadoop hadoop...@yahoo.com wrote:

Without passwordless ssh you can start it in pseudo-distributed mode. Instead of start-all.sh, start-dfs.sh etc, Use hadoop-daemon.sh start/stop daemon-name eg: for starting jobtracker hadoop-daemon.sh start jobtracker On Fri, May 17, 2013 at 4:45 PM, Bertrand Dechoux decho...@gmail.comwrote:

The scrits themselves will use ssh to connect to every machine (even localhost). It's up to you if you want to type the password everytime. For a pseudo-distributed system, I don't see the issue with configuring a local ssh access. BUT Hadoop in itself does not require ssh. If you have a more

When you start the hadoop procecess, each process will ask the password to start, to overcome this we will configure SSH if you use single node or multiple nodes for each process, if you can enter the password for each process Its not a mandatory even if you use multiple systems. Thanks, Kishore.

Actually, I should amend my statement -- SSH is required, but passwordless ssh (i guess) you can live without if you are willing to enter your password for each process that gets started. But Why wouldn't you want to implement passwordless ssh in a pseudo distributed cluster ? Its very easy to

Hello Raj, ssh is actually 2 things : 1- ssh : The command we use to connect to remote machines - the client. 2- sshd : The daemon that is running on the server and allows clients to connect to the server. ssh is pre-enabled on Linux, but in order to start sshd daemon, we need to install ssh
