Stern Center for Research Computing

First, you must have your Stern userid enabled for hadoop, and a hadoop user  created for your userid. To do that, please send an email to research@stern.nyu.edu, or call the help desk at 212-998-0180 and create a ticket for research computing.

You should be able to run hadoop map-reduce jobs, hive and mahout.

To start, type hadoop fs -lsr  /

and you should get a list of all the files in the file system.

hive

will enter the hive command line environment

mahout will give you access to the mahout command line.

Good luck….
