rpm -qa | grep hadoop rpm -ql hadoop For starting HDFS manually, you could take a look at either the apache hadoop docs or the link below from Hortonworks: http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.0.3/cluster_setup.html http://docs.hortonworks.com/CURRENT/index.htm#Deploying_Hortonworks_Data_Platform/Installing_Manually/rpminstall/rpm_validate/rpm_validate.htm ( you would skip the format step obviously :) ) Note: once you start doing manual operations, the UI will be in an inconsistent with respect to reality and there may be unforseen problems if you have to fall back to using the UI. -- Hitesh On Oct 3, 2012, at 2:15 PM, Artem Ervits wrote: > Is there a way to start hdfs manually, instead of using the Web UI?
