Hi,

Can anyone guide me to some pointers or explain how HDFS shares the information 
put in the temporary directories (hadoop.tmp.dir, mapred.tmp.dir, etc.) to all 
other nodes?

I suppose that during execution of a MapReduce job, the JobTracker prepares a 
file called jobtoken and puts it in the temporary directories. which needs to 
be read by all TaskTrackers. So, how does HDFS share the contents? Does it use 
nfs mount or ....?

Thanks & Regards,
Nikhil
