Hadoop 2.X Quick Start for Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial

Hello Xubuntu User! The Tutorial shows you Step-by-Step How to Install and Getting-Started with Apache Hadoop/Map-Reduce vanilla in Pseudo-Distributed mode on Linux Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial GNU/Linux Desktop.

Hadoop is a distributed master-slave that consists of the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) for storage and Map-Reduce for computational capabilities.

The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a distributed file system that spreads data blocks across the storage defined for the Hadoop cluster.

The foundation of Hadoop is the two core frameworks YARN and HDFS. These two frameworks deal with Processing and Storage.

Hadoop is a distributed master-slave that consists of the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) for storage and Map-Reduce for computational capabilities.

The Guide Describe a System-Wide Setup with Root Privileges but you Can Easily Convert the Procedure to a Local One.

The Apache Hadoop for Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial Require an Oracle JDK 8+ Installation on System.

Install Hadoop for Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial - Featured
  1. Download Latest Apache Hadoop Stable Release:

    Apache Hadoop Binary tar.gz
  2. Double-Click on Archive and Extract Into /tmp Directory.

    Linux Xubuntu Apache Hadoop Stable Quick Start - Extracting tar.gz Archive

    Or from CLI:

    tar xvzf *hadoop*tar.gz -C /tmp
  3. Open a Terminal Shell emulator window
    Ctrl+Alt+t on desktop
    (Press “Enter” to Execute Commands)

    Install Hadoop for Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial - Open Terminal
  4. Relocate Apache Hadoop Directory
    Get SuperUser Privileges:

    sudo su

    If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo
    Then Switch the contents with:

    mv /tmp/hadoop* /usr/local/

    Make an hadoop symlink directory:

    ln -s /usr/local/hadoop* /usr/local/hadoop
  5. Make Hadoop Needed Directories:

    First, Make the Logs Dir:

    mkdir /usr/local/hadoop/logs

    Giving Writing Permissions:

    chmod 777 /usr/local/hadoop/logs

    Next Make the Cache Dir:

    mkdir /usr/local/hadoop/cache

    Same Writing Permissions as for Logs:

    chmod 777 /usr/local/hadoop/cache

    And then also the Temporary Dir:

    mkdir /usr/local/hadoop/tmp

    Set the root as Owner:

    sudo chown -R root:root /usr/local/hadoop*
  6. How to Install Required Java JDK 8+ on Xubuntu

    Install Oracle JDK 8+ for Xubuntu
  7. Set JAVA_HOME in Hadoop Env File
    Make the Conf directory:

    mkdir /usr/local/hadoop/conf

    Make an Env file:

    nano /usr/local/hadoop/conf/hadoop-env.sh

    Append:

    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/[oracleJdkVersion]

    Change [oracleJdkVersion] with the current Version:
    Ctrl+x to Save & Exit from nano Editor :)

  8. Eclipse Hadoop Integration with Free Plugin.

  9. Hadoop Configuration for Pseudo-Distributed mode

    nano /usr/local/hadoop/conf/core-site.xml

    Append:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
    <configuration>
    <property>
    <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
    <value>/usr/local/hadoop/tmp</value>
    </property>
    <property>
    <name>fs.default.name</name>
    <value>hdfs://localhost:8020</value>
    </property>
    </configuration>
    

    Next:

    nano /usr/local/hadoop/conf/hdfs-site.xml

    Append:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
    <configuration>
    <property>
    <name>dfs.replication</name>
    <value>1</value>
    </property>
    <property>
    <!-- specify this so that running 'hdfs namenode -format'
    formats the right dir -->
    <name>dfs.name.dir</name>
    <value>/usr/local/hadoop/cache/hadoop/dfs/name</value>
    </property>
    </configuration>
    

    Last:

    nano /usr/local/hadoop/conf/mapred-site.xml

    Append:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
    <configuration>
    <property>
    <name>mapred.job.tracker</name>
    <value>localhost:8021</value>
    </property>
    </configuration>
    
  10. SetUp Local Path & Environment
    Exit from SuperUser to the normal User:

    exit

    Change to the Home directory:

    cd  

    Edit the bash Config file:

    nano .bashrc

    Inserts:

    HADOOP_HOME=/usr/local/hadoop
    export PATH=$PATH:$HADOOP_HOME/bin:$HADOOP_HOME/sbin
    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/<oracleJdkVersion>

    Then Load the New Setup:

    source $HOME/.bashrc
  11. SetUp Needed Local SSH Connection

    sudo systemctl start ssh

    Generate SSH Keys to Access:

    ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa
    echo "$(cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub)" > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

    Testing Connection:

    ssh 127.0.0.1
  12. Formatting HDFS

    hdfs namenode -format

    Install Hadoop for Xubuntu 16.04 Xenial - Terminal Apache Hadoop HDFS Formatting Success

  13. Starting Up Hadoop Database

    start-all.sh
