Test access to ADLS

To test access to ADLS, SSH to a cluster node and run a few hadoop fs shell commands against your existing ADLS account.

ADLS access path syntax is:

adl://account_name.azuredatalakestore.net/dir/file

For example, the following Hadoop FileSystem shell commands demonstrate access to a storage account named “myaccount”:

hadoop fs -mkdir adl://myaccount.azuredatalakestore.net/testdir
hadoop fs -put testfile adl://myaccount.azuredatalakestore.net/testdir/testfile

To use DistCp against ADLS, use the following syntax:

hadoop distcp
    [-D hadoop.security.credential.provider.path=localjceks://file/home/user/adls.jceks]
    hdfs://namenode_hostname:9001/user/foo/007020615
    adl://myaccount.azuredatalakestore.net/testDir/

For more information about configuring the ADLS connector and working with data stored in ADLS, refer to Cloud Data Access HDP documentation.
