The user1 will mainly require a home directory on the HDFS, created by
the HDFS administrator user ('hadoop' in your case): sudo -u hadoop

user1:user1 /user/user1. After this, the user should be able to run
jobs and manipulate files in their own directory.On Thu, Aug 29, 2013 at 10:21 AM, Hadoop Raj <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have a hadoop learning environment on a pseudo distributed mode.
