These nodes should be co-located with your + Hadoop installation. +* Running on the same nodes as an existing Hadoop installation, with a fixed amount memory and + cores dedicated to Spark on each node. +* Run Spark alongside Hadoop using a cluster resource manager, such as YARN or Mesos. + +These options are identical for those using CDH and HDP. + +# Inheriting Cluster Configuration +If you plan to read and write from HDFS using Spark, there are two Hadoop configuration files that +should be included on Spark's classpath: + +* `hdfs-site.xml`, which provides default behaviors for the HDFS client. +* `core-site.xml`, which sets the default filesystem name. + +The location of these configuration files varies across CDH and HDP versions, but +a common location is inside of `/etc/hadoop/conf`. Some tools, such as Cloudera Manager, create +configurations on-the-fly, but offer a mechanisms to download copies of them. + +There are a few ways to make these files visible to Spark: + +* You can copy these files into `$SPARK_HOME/conf` and they will be included in Spark's +classpath automatically. +* If you are running Spark on the same nodes as Hadoop _and_ your distribution includes both +`hdfs-site.xml` and `core-site.xml` in the same directory, you can set `HADOOP_CONF_DIR` +in `$SPARK_HOME/spark-env.sh` to that directory. |
