What we want to do

In this short tutorial, I will describe the required steps for setting up a single-node Hadoop cluster using the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) on Ubuntu Linux.

Are you looking for the multi-node cluster tutorial? Just head over there.

Hadoop is a framework written in Java for running applications on large clusters of commodity hardware and incorporates features similar to those of the Google File System and of MapReduce. HDFS is a highly fault-tolerant distributed file system and like Hadoop designed to be deployed on low-cost hardware. It provides high throughput access to application data and is suitable for applications that have large data sets.

The main goal of this tutorial is to get a simple Hadoop installation up and running so that you can play around with the software and learn more about it.

This tutorial has been tested with the following software versions:

  • Ubuntu Linux 8.10, 8.04, 7.10, 7.04
  • Hadoop 0.20.0, released April 2009 (also works with 0.13.x - 0.19.x)

You can find the time of the last document update at the very bottom of this page.

Prerequisites

Sun Java 6

Hadoop requires a working Java 1.5.x (aka 5.0.x) installation. However, using Java 1.6.x (aka 6.0.x aka 6) is recommended for running Hadoop. For the sake of this tutorial, I will therefore describe the installation of Java 1.6. But if you still want Java 1.5 for whatever reason, simply use the package sun-java5-jdk and adjust the paths described below as needed.

Install Sun's Java Development Kit v1.6.0 aka "Sun Java(TM) Development Kit (JDK) 6" as it is named on Ubuntu via Synaptic (System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager) or via apt-get: Install the package

 sun-java6-jdk

for the full JDK which will be placed in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun (well, this directory is actually a symlink on Ubuntu).

After installation, check if Sun's JDK is at the top of /etc/jvm. For example, mine looks like this:

 # /etc/jvm
 #
 # This file defines the default system JVM search order. Each
 # JVM should list their JAVA_HOME compatible directory in this file.
 # The default system JVM is the first one available from top to
 # bottom.
 
 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
 /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj
 /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-1.5.0-sun
 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun
 /usr

Adding a dedicated Hadoop system user

We will use a dedicated Hadoop user account for running Hadoop. While that's not required it is recommended because it helps to separate the Hadoop installation from other software applications and user accounts running on the same machine (think: security, permissions, backups, etc).

 $ sudo addgroup hadoop
 $ sudo adduser --ingroup hadoop hadoop

This will add the user hadoop and the group hadoop to your local machine.

Configuring SSH

Hadoop requires SSH access to manage its nodes, i.e. remote machines plus your local machine if you want to use Hadoop on it (which is what we want to do in this short tutorial). For our single-node setup of Hadoop, we therefore need to configure SSH access to localhost for the hadoop user we create in the previous section.

I assume that you have SSH up and running on your machine and configured it to allow SSH public key authentication. If not, there are several guides available.

First, we have to generate an SSH key for the hadoop user.

 noll@ubuntu:~$ su - hadoop
 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -P ""
 Generating public/private rsa key pair.
 Enter file in which to save the key (/home/hadoop/.ssh/id_rsa):
 Created directory '/home/hadoop/.ssh'.
 Your identification has been saved in /home/hadoop/.ssh/id_rsa.
 Your public key has been saved in /home/hadoop/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
 The key fingerprint is:
 9d:47:ab:d7:22:54:f0:f9:b9:3b:64:93:12:75:81:27 hadoop@ubuntu
 hadoop@ubuntu:~$

The second line will create an RSA key pair with an empty password. Generally, using an empty password is not recommended, but in this case it is needed to unlock the key without your interaction (you don't want to enter the passphrase every time Hadoop interacts with its nodes).

Second, you have to enable SSH access to your local machine with this newly created key.

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ cat $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys

The final step is to test the SSH setup by connecting to your local machine with the hadoop user. The step is also needed to save your local machine's host key fingerprint to the hadoop user's known_hosts file. If you have any special SSH configuration for your local machine like a non-standard SSH port, you can define host-specific SSH options in $HOME/.ssh/config (see man ssh_config for more information).

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ ssh localhost
 The authenticity of host 'localhost (127.0.0.1)' can't be established.
 RSA key fingerprint is 76:d7:61:86:ea:86:8f:31:89:9f:68:b0:75:88:52:72.
 Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
 Warning: Permanently added 'localhost' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
 Ubuntu 8.04
 ...
 hadoop@ubuntu:~$

If the SSH connect should fail, these general tips might help:

  • Enable debugging with ssh -vvv localhost and investigate the error in detail.
  • Check the SSH server configuration in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, in particular the options PubkeyAuthentication (which should be set to yes) and AllowUsers (if this option is active, add the hadoop user to it). If you made any changes to the SSH server configuration file, you can force a configuration reload with sudo /etc/init.d/ssh reload.

Disabling IPv6

I have not found out yet how to configure Hadoop to listen on all IPv4 (again: IPv4) network interfaces. Using 0.0.0.0 for the various networking-related Hadoop configuration options will result in Hadoop binding to the IPv6 addresses on my Ubuntu box.

As a workaround (and realizing that there's no practical point in enabling IPv6 on a box when you are not connected to any IPv6 network), I simply disabled IPv6 on my Ubuntu machine. Your mileage may vary.

To disable IPv6 on Ubuntu Linux, open /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist in the editor of your choice and add the following lines to the end of the file:

 # disable IPv6
 blacklist ipv6

You have to reboot your machine in order to make the changes take effect.

Alternative

As reader Erik Forsberg pointed out, you can edit conf/hadoop-env.sh and set

 HADOOP_OPTS=-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

as documented in the comments to HADOOP-3437. Please note that I haven't verified myself yet - but Erik has.

Hadoop

Installation

You have to download Hadoop from the Apache Download Mirrors and extract the contents of the Hadoop package to a location of your choice. I picked /usr/local/hadoop. Make sure to change the owner of all the files to the hadoop user and group, for example:

 $ cd /usr/local
 $ sudo tar xzf hadoop-0.20.0.tar.gz
 $ sudo mv hadoop-0.20.0 hadoop
 $ sudo chown -R hadoop:hadoop hadoop

(just to give you the idea, YMMV - personally, I create a symlink from hadoop-0.20.0 to hadoop)

Alternative

Update June 2009: The folks over at Cloudera notified me that they have bundled up Hadoop as an open source Deb package. If you add their repository to APT, you can use apt-get to install the needed packages for Hadoop and related subprojects like Pig or Hive. According to Jeff Hammerbacher from Cloudera, they are actually working with the Canonical team to get these packages added to the vanilla distribution of Ubuntu.

Excursus: Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS)

From The Hadoop Distributed File System: Architecture and Design:

The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a distributed file system designed to run on commodity hardware. It has many similarities with existing distributed file systems. However, the differences from other distributed file systems are significant. HDFS is highly fault-tolerant and is designed to be deployed on low-cost hardware. HDFS provides high throughput access to application data and is suitable for applications that have large data sets. HDFS relaxes a few POSIX requirements to enable streaming access to file system data. HDFS was originally built as infrastructure for the Apache Nutch web search engine project. HDFS is part of the Apache Hadoop project, which is part of the Apache Lucene project.

The following picture gives an overview of the most important HDFS components.


Configuration

Our goal in this tutorial is a single-node setup of Hadoop. More information of what we do in this section is available on the Hadoop Wiki.

hadoop-env.sh

The only required environment variable we have to configure for Hadoop in this tutorial is JAVA_HOME. Open <HADOOP_INSTALL>/conf/hadoop-env.sh in the editor of your choice (if you used the installation path in this tutorial, the full path is /usr/local/hadoop/conf/hadoop-env.sh) and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the Sun JDK/JRE 6 directory.

Change

 # The java implementation to use.  Required.
 # export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun

to

 # The java implementation to use.  Required.
 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun

If you chose to use Java 1.5, remember to put the correct paths in here!

conf/*-site.xml

Note: As of Hadoop 0.20.0, the configuration settings previously found in hadoop-site.xml were moved to core-site.xml (hadoop.tmp.dir, fs.default.name), mapred-site.xml (mapred.job.tracker) and hdfs-site.xml (dfs.replication).

In this section, we will configure the directory where Hadoop will store its data files, the network ports it listens to, etc. Our setup will use Hadoop's Distributed File System, HDFS, even though our little "cluster" only contains our single local machine.

You can leave the settings below as is with the exception of the hadoop.tmp.dir variable which you have to change to the directory of your choice, for example /usr/local/hadoop-datastore/hadoop-${user.name}. Hadoop will expand ${user.name} to the system user which is running Hadoop, so in our case this will be hadoop and thus the final path will be /usr/local/hadoop-datastore/hadoop-hadoop.

Note: Depending on your choice of location, you might have to create the directory manually with sudo mkdir /your/path; sudo chown hadoop:hadoop /your/path in case the hadoop user does not have the required permissions to do so (otherwise, you will see a java.io.IOException when you try to format the name node in the next section).

In file conf/core-site.xml:

<!-- In: conf/core-site.xml -->
<property>
  <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
  <value>/your/path/to/hadoop/tmp/dir/hadoop-${user.name}</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.  The
  uri's scheme determines the config property (fs.SCHEME.impl) naming
  the FileSystem implementation class.  The uri's authority is used to
  determine the host, port, etc. for a filesystem.</description>
</property>

In file conf/mapred-site.xml:

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

In file conf/hdfs-site.xml:

<!-- In: conf/hdfs-site.xml -->
<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 time.
  </description>
</property>

See Getting Started with Hadoop and the documentation in Hadoop's API Overview if you have any questions about Hadoop's configuration options.

Formatting the name node

The first step to starting up your Hadoop installation is formatting the Hadoop filesystem which is implemented on top of the local filesystem of your "cluster" (which includes only your local machine if you followed this tutorial). You need to do this the first time you set up a Hadoop cluster. Do not format a running Hadoop filesystem, this will cause all your data to be erased.

To format the filesystem (which simply initializes the directory specified by the dfs.name.dir variable), run the command

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ <HADOOP_INSTALL>/hadoop/bin/hadoop namenode -format

The output will look like this:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop namenode -format
 07/09/21 12:00:25 INFO dfs.NameNode: STARTUP_MSG:
 /***********************************************************
 STARTUP_MSG: Starting NameNode
 STARTUP_MSG:   host = ubuntu/127.0.0.1
 STARTUP_MSG:   args = [-format]
 ***********************************************************/
 07/09/21 12:00:25 INFO dfs.Storage: Storage directory [...] has been successfully formatted.
 07/09/21 12:00:25 INFO dfs.NameNode: SHUTDOWN_MSG:
 /***********************************************************
 SHUTDOWN_MSG: Shutting down NameNode at ubuntu/127.0.0.1
 ***********************************************************/
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$

Starting your single-node cluster

Run the command:

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ <HADOOP_INSTALL>/bin/start-all.sh

This will startup a Namenode, Datanode, Jobtracker and a Tasktracker on your machine.

The output will look like this:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/start-all.sh 
 starting namenode, logging to /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../logs/hadoop-hadoop-namenode-ubuntu.out
 localhost: starting datanode, logging to /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../logs/hadoop-hadoop-datanode-ubuntu.out
 localhost: starting secondarynamenode, logging to /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../logs/hadoop-hadoop-secondarynamenode-ubuntu.out
 starting jobtracker, logging to /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../logs/hadoop-hadoop-jobtracker-ubuntu.out
 localhost: starting tasktracker, logging to /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../logs/hadoop-hadoop-tasktracker-ubuntu.out
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$

A nifty tool for checking whether the expected Hadoop processes are running is jps (part of Sun's Java since v1.5.0). See also How to debug MapReduce programs.

 hadoop@sea:/usr/local/hadoop/$ jps
 19811 TaskTracker
 19674 SecondaryNameNode
 19735 JobTracker
 19497 NameNode
 20879 TaskTracker$Child
 21810 Jps

You can also check with netstat if Hadoop is listening on the configured ports.

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ sudo netstat -plten | grep java
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50050    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86234   23634/java          
 tcp  0  0 127.0.0.1:54310  0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   85800   23317/java          
 tcp  0  0 127.0.0.1:54311  0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86383   23543/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50090    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86119   23478/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50060    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86233   23634/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50030    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86393   23543/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50070    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   85964   23317/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50010    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86045   23389/java          
 tcp  0  0 0.0.0.0:50075    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   1001   86102   23389/java          
 hadoop@ubuntu:~$

If there are any errors, examine the log files in the <HADOOP_INSTALL>/logs/ directory.

Stopping your single-node cluster

Run the command

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ <HADOOP_INSTALL>/bin/stop-all.sh

to stop all the daemons running on your machine.

Exemplary output:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/stop-all.sh 
 stopping jobtracker
 localhost: Ubuntu 8.04
 localhost: stopping tasktracker
 stopping namenode
 localhost: Ubuntu 8.04
 localhost: stopping datanode
 localhost: Ubuntu 8.04
 localhost: stopping secondarynamenode
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$

Running a MapReduce job

We will now run your first Hadoop MapReduce job. We will use the WordCount example job which reads text files and counts how often words occur. The input is text files and the output is text files, each line of which contains a word and the count of how often it occurred, separated by a tab. More information of what happens behind the scenes is available at the Hadoop Wiki.

Download example input data

We will use three ebooks from Project Gutenberg for this example:

Download each ebook as plain text files in us-ascii encoding and store the uncompressed files in a temporary directory of choice, for example /tmp/gutenberg.

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ ls -l /tmp/gutenberg/
 total 3592
 -rw-r--r-- 1 hadoop hadoop  674425 2007-01-22 12:56 20417-8.txt
 -rw-r--r-- 1 hadoop hadoop 1423808 2006-08-03 16:36 7ldvc10.txt
 -rw-r--r-- 1 hadoop hadoop 1561677 2004-11-26 09:48 ulyss12.txt
 hadoop@ubuntu:~$

Restart the Hadoop cluster

Restart your Hadoop cluster if it's not running already.

 hadoop@ubuntu:~$ <HADOOP_INSTALL>/bin/start-all.sh

Copy local example data to HDFS

Before we run the actual MapReduce job, we first have to copy the files from our local file system to Hadoop's HDFS.

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -copyFromLocal /tmp/gutenberg gutenberg
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -ls
 Found 1 items
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg  <dir>
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -ls gutenberg
 Found 3 items
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg/20417-8.txt      <r 1>   674425
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg/7ldvc10.txt      <r 1>   1423808
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg/ulyss12.txt      <r 1>   1561677

Run the MapReduce job

Now, we actually run the WordCount example job.

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop jar hadoop-0.20.0-examples.jar wordcount gutenberg gutenberg-output

This command will read all the files in the HDFS directory gutenberg, process it, and store the result in the HDFS directory gutenberg-output.

Exemplary output of the previous command in the console:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop jar hadoop-0.20.0-examples.jar wordcount gutenberg gutenberg-output

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ 


Check if the result is successfully stored in HDFS directory gutenberg-output:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -ls 
 Found 2 items
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg  <dir>
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg-output   <dir>
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -ls gutenberg-output
 Found 1 items
 /user/hadoop/gutenberg-output/part-00000        <r 1>   903193
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$

If you want to modify some Hadoop settings on the fly like increasing the number of Reduce tasks, you can use the "-D" option:

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop jar hadoop-0.20.0-examples.jar wordcount -D mapred.reduce.tasks=16 gutenberg gutenberg-output
An important note about mapred.map.tasks: Hadoop does not honor mapred.map.tasks beyond considering it a hint. But it accepts the user specified mapred.reduce.tasks and doesn't manipulate that. You cannot force mapred.map.tasks but can specify mapred.reduce.tasks.

Retrieve the job result from HDFS

To inspect the file, you can copy it from HDFS to the local file system. Alternatively, you can use the command

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -cat gutenberg-output/part-00000

to read the file directly from HDFS without copying it to the local file system. In this tutorial, we will copy the results to the local file system though.

 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ mkdir /tmp/gutenberg-output
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ bin/hadoop dfs -copyToLocal gutenberg-output/part-00000 /tmp/gutenberg-output
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$ head /tmp/gutenberg-output/part-00000 
 "(Lo)cra"       1

 "AS-IS".        2
 "A_     1
 "Absoluti       1
 "Alack! 1
 hadoop@ubuntu:/usr/local/hadoop$

Note that in this specific output the quote signs (") enclosing the words in the head output above have not been inserted by Hadoop. They are the result of the word tokenizer used in the WordCount example, and in this case they matched the beginning of a quote in the ebook texts. Just inspect the part-00000 file further to see it for yourself.

Hadoop Web Interfaces

Hadoop comes with several web interfaces which are by default (see conf/hadoop-default.xml) available at these locations:

These web interfaces provide concise information about what's happening in your Hadoop cluster. You might want to give them a try.

MapReduce Job Tracker Web Interface

The job tracker web UI provides information about general job statistics of the Hadoop cluster, running/completed/failed jobs and a job history log file. It also gives access to the local machine's Hadoop log files (the machine on which the web UI is running on).

By default, it's available at http://localhost:50030/.


Figure 2: A screenshot of Hadoop's Job Tracker web interface.

Task Tracker Web Interface

The task tracker web UI shows you running and non-running tasks. It also gives access to the local machine's Hadoop log files.

By default, it's available at http://localhost:50060/.


Figure 3: A screenshot of Hadoop's Task Tracker web interface.


HDFS Name Node Web Interface

The name node web UI shows you a cluster summary including information about total/remaining capacity, live and dead nodes. Additionally, it allows you to browse the HDFS namespace and view the contents of its files in the web browser. It also gives access to the local machine's Hadoop log files.

By default, it's available at http://localhost:50070/.


Figure 4: A screenshot of Hadoop's Name Node web interface.

What's next?

If you're feeling comfortable, you can continue your Hadoop experience with my follow-up tutorial Running Hadoop On Ubuntu Linux (Multi-Node Cluster) where I describe how to build a Hadoop multi-node cluster with two Ubuntu boxes (this will increase your current cluster size by 100% :-P).

In addition, I wrote tutorial on how to code a simple MapReduce job in the Python programming language which can serve as the basis for writing your own MapReduce programs.
