HADOOP 2.6 INSTALLING ON UBUNTU 14.

04
(SINGLE-NODE CLUSTER)

Hadoop on Ubuntu 14.04

In this chapter, we'll install a single-node Hadoop cluster backed by the
Hadoop Distributed File System on Ubuntu.

Installing Java
Hadoop framework is written in Java!!

k@laptop:~$ cd ~

# Update the source list

k@laptop:~$ sudo apt-get update

# The OpenJDK project is the default version of Java

# that is provided from a supported Ubuntu repository.
k@laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install default-jdk

k@laptop:~$ java -version

java version "1.7.0_65"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.3) (7u71-2.5.3-0ubuntu0.14
.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)

Installing SSH
ssh has two main components:
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.

The ssh is pre-enabled on Linux, but in order to start sshd daemon, we need
to install sshfirst. Use this command to do that :

k@laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install ssh

This will install ssh on our machine. If we get something similar to the
following, we can think it is setup properly:

k@laptop:~$ which ssh

/usr/bin/ssh

k@laptop:~$ which sshd

/usr/sbin/sshd

Create and Setup SSH Certificates

Hadoop requires SSH access to manage its nodes, i.e. remote machines plus
our local machine. For our single-node setup of Hadoop, we therefore need to
configure SSH access to localhost.

So, we need to have SSH up and running on our machine and configured it to
allow SSH public key authentication.
Hadoop uses SSH (to access its nodes) which would normally require the
user to enter a password. However, this requirement can be eliminated by
creating and setting up SSH certificates using the following commands. If
asked for a filename just leave it blank and press the enter key to continue.

k@laptop:~$ su hduser
Password:
hduser@laptop:~$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -P ""
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/hduser/.ssh/id_rsa):
Created directory '/home/hduser/.ssh'.
Your identification has been saved in /home/hduser/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /home/hduser/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
50:6b:f3:fc:0f:32:bf:30:79:c2:41:71:26:cc:7d:e3 hduser@laptop
The key's randomart image is:
+--[ RSA 2048]----+
| .oo.o |
| . .o=. o |
| . + . o . |
| o = E |
| S + |
| . + |
| O + |
| O o |
| o.. |
+-----------------+
hduser@laptop:/home/k$ cat $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> $HOME/.ssh/auth
orized_keys

The second command adds the newly created key to the list of authorized
keys so that Hadoop can use ssh without prompting for a password.

We can check if ssh works:

hduser@laptop:/home/k$ ssh localhost

The authenticity of host 'localhost (127.0.0.1)' can't be establish
ed.
ECDSA key fingerprint is e1:8b:a0:a5:75:ef:f4:b4:5e:a9:ed:be:64:be:
5c:2f.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'localhost' (ECDSA) to the list of known
hosts.
Welcome to Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-40-generic x86_64)
...

Install Hadoop
hduser@laptop:~$ wget http://mirrors.sonic.net/apache/hadoop/common
/hadoop-2.6.0/hadoop-2.6.0.tar.gz
hduser@laptop:~$ tar xvzf hadoop-2.6.0.tar.gz

We want to move the Hadoop installation to the /usr/local/hadoop directory

using the following command:
hduser@laptop:~/hadoop-2.6.0$ sudo mv * /usr/local/hadoop
[sudo] password for hduser:
hduser is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Oops!... We got:

"hduser is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

"

This error can be resolved by logging in as a root user, and then

add hduser to sudo:

hduser@laptop:~/hadoop-2.6.0$ su k
Password:

k@laptop:/home/hduser$ sudo adduser hduser sudo

[sudo] password for k:
Adding user `hduser' to group `sudo' ...
Adding user hduser to group sudo
Done.

Now, the hduser has root priviledge, we can move the Hadoop installation to
the /usr/local/hadoop directory without any problem:

k@laptop:/home/hduser$ sudo su hduser

hduser@laptop:~/hadoop-2.6.0$ sudo mv * /usr/local/hadoop

hduser@laptop:~/hadoop-2.6.0$ sudo chown -R hduser:hadoop /usr/loca
l/hadoop
 Setup Configuration Files
The following files will have to be modified to complete the Hadoop setup:

1. ~/.bashrc
2. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hadoop-env.sh
3. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml
4. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/mapred-site.xml.template
5. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml

1. ~/.bashrc:

Before editing the .bashrc file in our home directory, we need to find the path
where Java has been installed to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable
using the following command:

hduser@laptop update-alternatives --config java

There is only one alternative in link group java (providing /usr/bi
n/java): /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
Nothing to configure.

Now we can append the following to the end of ~/.bashrc:

hduser@laptop:~$ vi ~/.bashrc
#HADOOP VARIABLES START
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64
export HADOOP_INSTALL=/usr/local/hadoop
export PATH=$PATH:$HADOOP_INSTALL/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$HADOOP_INSTALL/sbin
export HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME=$HADOOP_INSTALL
export HADOOP_COMMON_HOME=$HADOOP_INSTALL
export HADOOP_HDFS_HOME=$HADOOP_INSTALL
export YARN_HOME=$HADOOP_INSTALL
export HADOOP_COMMON_LIB_NATIVE_DIR=$HADOOP_INSTALL/lib/native
export HADOOP_OPTS="-Djava.library.path=$HADOOP_INSTALL/lib"
#HADOOP VARIABLES END

hduser@laptop:~$ source ~/.bashrc

note that the JAVA_HOME should be set as the path just before the '.../bin/':

hduser@ubuntu-VirtualBox:~$ javac -version

javac 1.7.0_75

hduser@ubuntu-VirtualBox:~$ which javac

/usr/bin/javac

hduser@ubuntu-VirtualBox:~$ readlink -f /usr/bin/javac

/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac

2. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hadoop-env.sh
We need to set JAVA_HOME by modifying hadoop-env.sh file.

hduser@laptop:~$ vi /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hadoop-env.sh

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

Adding the above statement in the hadoop-env.sh file ensures that the value
of JAVA_HOME variable will be available to Hadoop whenever it is started up.

3. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml:

The /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml file contains configuration

properties that Hadoop uses when starting up.
This file can be used to override the default settings that Hadoop starts with.

hduser@laptop:~$ sudo mkdir -p /app/hadoop/tmp

hduser@laptop:~$ sudo chown hduser:hadoop /app/hadoop/tmp

Open the file and enter the following in between the

<configuration></configuration> tag:

hduser@laptop:~$ vi /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml

<configuration>
<property>
<name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
<value>/app/hadoop/tmp</value>
 <description>A base for other temporary directories.</description
>
</property>

<property>
<name>fs.default.name</name>
<value>hdfs://localhost:54310</value>
<description>The name of the default file system. A URI whose
scheme and authority determine the FileSystem implementation. Th
e
uri's scheme determines the config property (fs.SCHEME.impl) nami
ng
the FileSystem implementation class. The uri's authority is used
to
determine the host, port, etc. for a filesystem.</description>
</property>
</configuration>

4. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/mapred-site.xml

By default, the /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/ folder contains

/usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/mapred-site.xml.template
file which has to be renamed/copied with the name mapred-site.xml:

hduser@laptop:~$ cp /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/mapred-site.xml.te
mplate /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/mapred-site.xml

The mapred-site.xml file is used to specify which framework is being used for
MapReduce.
We need to enter the following content in between the
<configuration></configuration> tag:

<configuration>
<property>
<name>mapred.job.tracker</name>
<value>localhost:54311</value>
<description>The host and port that the MapReduce job tracker run
s
at. If "local", then jobs are run in-process as a single map
and reduce task.
</description>
</property>
</configuration>

5. /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml

The /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml file needs to be configured

for each host in the cluster that is being used.
It is used to specify the directories which will be used as the namenode and
the datanode on that host.

Before editing this file, we need to create two directories which will contain the
namenode and the datanode for this Hadoop installation.
This can be done using the following commands:

hduser@laptop:~$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/namenod

e
hduser@laptop:~$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/datanod
e
hduser@laptop:~$ sudo chown -R hduser:hadoop /usr/local/hadoop_stor
e

Open the file and enter the following content in between the
<configuration></configuration> tag:

hduser@laptop:~$ vi /usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml

<configuration>
<property>
<name>dfs.replication</name>
<value>1</value>
<description>Default block replication.
The actual number of replications can be specified when the file
is created.
The default is used if replication is not specified in create tim
e.
</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.namenode.name.dir</name>
<value>file:/usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/namenode</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.datanode.data.dir</name>
<value>file:/usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/datanode</value>
</property>
</configuration>
Format the New Hadoop Filesystem
Now, the Hadoop file system needs to be formatted so that we can start to
use it. The format command should be issued with write permission since it
creates current directory
under /usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/namenode folder:

hduser@laptop:~$ hadoop namenode -format

DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute hdfs command is deprecate
d.
Instead use the hdfs command for it.

Note that hadoop namenode -format command should be executed once

before we start using Hadoop.
If this command is executed again after Hadoop has been used, it'll destroy all
the data on the Hadoop file system.

Starting Hadoop
Now it's time to start the newly installed single node cluster.
We can use start-all.sh or (start-dfs.sh and start-yarn.sh)
k@laptop:~$ cd /usr/local/hadoop/sbin

k@laptop:/usr/local/hadoop/sbin$ ls
distribute-exclude.sh start-all.cmd stop-balancer.sh

We can check if it's really up and running:

hduser@laptop:/usr/local/hadoop/sbin$ jps
9026 NodeManager
7348 NameNode
9766 Jps
8887 ResourceManager
7507 DataNode

The output means that we now have a functional instance of Hadoop running
on our VPS (Virtual private server).

Another way to check is using netstat:

hduser@laptop:~$ netstat -plten | grep java
