Hi all,
I want to test Backup Node in Hadoop 1.0.0 for my 2 node cluster. Say machine A 
is master and machine B I want to setup as Backup node. I removed entry from 
"masters" file so that no SNN is started. I configured both machines similarly 
just for testing want dfs to be started on machine A and backup started on B.

hdfs-site.xml:
<property>
     <name>dfs.backup.address</name>
     <value>B</value>
</property>

Slaves File:
A

Now I format machine A and start dfs :
./hadoop namenode -format
./start-dfs.sh

But I am not sure if Backup node is started. I think I am missing something. 
How to get this working and test Backup node.

Thanks
