Using DistCp between HA clusters using Cloudera Manager
To copy data between HA clusters using distcp
, you must configure
specific name service properties to ensure that the HDFS clients in a cluster can access a
remote HA cluster. You can configure these values through advanced configuration snippets in
Cloudera Manager.
This procedure explains how you can configure the name service properties from Cloudera Manager to enable copying of data between two example clusters A and B. Here, A is the source cluster while B is the remote cluster.
