I am trying to verify something here.. I run mapred with local option. These are trivial issues but need to be addressed at some point of time
Right now two /tmp directories are created ( one in the running directory) Let us say /nutch/tmp and another in the root folder /tmp Following are the questions 1)Are there supposed to be two instances of /tmp folder ?ie /tmp and as well as /nutch/tmp 2) Where are these directories supposed to be system /tmp/hadoop/mapred/system ???? or /nutch/tmp/hadoop/mapred/system ???? 2) Map files local directory in /tmp/hadoop/mapred/local ???? or /nutch/tmp/hadoop/mapred/local ???? 3) Are we trying to store some user related files when we have /nutch/tmp. Why cant we keep it as /tmp/hadoop/ in all the systems (including task tracker and job tracker) Rgds Prabhu
