[Hadoop-common-user] another quick question

Hi

The tmp directory is local to the machine running the hadoop system,
so if your hadoop is on a remote machine, tmp directory has to be on
that machine

Your question is not clear to me e.g. what you want to do?

Sorry I'm confused. The story is:

I ssh into my school-account using my home-computer and installed
hadoop in school directory. I used to open the browser of
Hadoop-Quick-Start (hdfs://localhost:50070) from my home computer and
it showed me the file-system. Yesterday, however, I only wrote the
property hadoop.tmp.dir = /cs/student/maha into core-site.xml, then I
couldn't open hdfs://localhost:50070 on my home computer. I had to
type hdfs://school-host:50070 to see it.

I want to use the default link again using my home computer.

Thanks,
Maha

Hi Maha ,

I don't think the hadoop.tmp.dir relates the problem of web ui. The
web ui is bind to 0.0.0.0:50070
And localhost is mapped to 127.0.0.1 of your home machine in your client side.

Well I went to check. Now, I'm using the school machine and the UI
from quick start worked fine ie. hdfs://localhost:50070. looking at my
fileSystem the temporary directory created has system file in it. is
that why?

/cs/student/maha/tmp/mapred/system

I'm able to use the "localhost" instead of typing
hdfs://school-host-machine:50070

I think I need a Networks course.
