Tom White updated HADOOP-884:
-----------------------------
Attachment: hadoop-884.patch
The attached patch includes the Hadoop EC2 scripts in contrib/ec2/bin. I think
they are ready for inclusion in the main distribution now.
I have extended the scripts since the version in the tar.gz file by making them
more robust: they no longer have to be unpacked and invoked from the user's
home directory. More significantly, I have used a parameterized launch to set
cluster size and master hostname. Previously, you had to build an image for a
particular cluster size and hostname - now you can build one image and choose
the cluster size and host name at launch time. (This is a step towards shared
Hadoop images.)
As for the other improvements, I will create new Jira issues for them, since
the basic scripts are in a working state (although I would love feedback if
anyone tries them out).
James - thank you for the suggestion about Zeroconf. I've not had any
experience with it, so any help would be appreciated.
> Create scripts to run Hadoop on Amazon EC2

> It is already possible to run Hadoop on Amazon EC2
> (http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-hadoop/AmazonEC2), however it is a rather
> involved, largely manual process. By writing scripts to automate (as far as
> is possible) image creation and cluster launch it will make it much easier to
> use Hadoop on EC2.
