I am trying to automate the installation/bringup of a complete hadoop/hbase cluster from a single script. I have run into a very small issue... Before bringing up the namenode, I have to format it with the usual "hadoop namenode -format"
Executing the above command prompts the user for Y/N?. Is there an option that can be passed to force the format without prompting? The aim is for the script to complete without any human intervention...
