Jim, I'd be interested in hearing your experience with Whirr when you try it. I've been testing it the last couple of days and I haven't been able to get the out-of-the box hadoop recipe to work when it cames up (the namenode doesn't have any datanodes configured although they are all up and running). Maybe you have better luck? I've tried the Whirr 0.3.0 distro that comes with CDH3 as well as the recent 0.5.0 tarball from the apache mirrors. I encountered issues with the recipes included in either one. The only thing I haven't tried yet is building from the latest source.
