I have few basic doubts in Mahout. 

 

*       What is the difference between running a mahout job locally and
in Hadoop?

 

*       I wrote a simple mahout job to do K-means clustering using my
data. I packaged it as jar and tried running it. It worked and did the
clustering in a Hadoop single node cluster. I am planning to move this
job to a multi node cluster.  Should I execute mahout command from job
tracker node only? Or can I execute it from any node in cluster and be
assured that it uses all the nodes in the cluster. How mahout works in a
multi node cluster?

 

*       Can I use eclipse Hadoop plugin to submit mahout jobs in
cluster?

 

Thanks for any assistance.
