Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Hadoop Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by andyk: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Chukwa_Quick_Start ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ == Running Chukwa on a Cluster == The cluster deployment process is still under active development, thus it is possible that the following instructions may not work yet, but they will soon, so please don't delete them. Eventually, even the single machine setup (for newcomers to Chukwa who want to try it out of the box on their) above will be replaced by the below process, renaming the conf/slaves.template and conf/collectors.template files (to remove the .template suffix) for the defaults of localhost for the collector and agent. - 1. Like in Hadoop, you can specify a set of nodes on which you want to run Chukwa agents (similar to conf/slaves in Hadoop) using a conf/slaves file. + 1. Specify which hosts to run collectors on in the conf/collectors file. - 2. Similarly, collectors should be specified using the conf/collectors file. These can be run using bin/start-collectors.sh + 1. Start the collectors in your cluster with the command <code>bin/start-collectors.sh</code> - 3. The local agents on each machine will also reference the conf/collectors file, selecting a collector at random from this list to talk to. Thus, like Hadoop, it is common to run Chukwa from a shared file system where all of the agents (i.e. slaves) can access the same conf files. + 1.
