Configuring HDFS to access EMC Isilon storage

In the last blog post I showed how to configure your EMC Isilon cluster for HDFS. This post will show how to setup Hadoop to utilze Isilon for HDFS.

There are 2 files that contain the HDFS configuration information. These files are in the hadoop/conf directory. There location will depend on where you installed hadoop. In the example below they are located in the /etc/hadoop/conf directory.

Location of the files core-site.xml and hdfs-site.xml. Use your favorite editor to access and change the settings

Core-site.xml contains the fs.default.name entry. To connect it to Isilon it should read

<name> fs.default.name</name>

<value>hdfs://FQDNofISILON:8020</value>

</property>

The hdfs-site.xml file  should read

<property>

<name>dfs.http.address</name>

<value>FQDNofISILON:50070<value>

</property>

 

 

There is no service to restart as the config file is reloaded for every request to HDFS.
