SAGA-Hadoop 0.15-1-gbbb8b32

SAGA to launch an Hadoop cluster as a normal batch job on Torque clusters

# SAGA Hadoop

# Overview:

Use [SAGA](http://saga-project.github.io/saga-python/) to spawn an Hadoop Cluster within an HPC batch job.

Currently supported SAGA adaptors:

• Fork

• Torque

By default SAGA-Hadoop deploys an Hadoop 2.2.0 YARN cluster. The cluster can be customized by adjusting the templates for the Hadoop configuration files in core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml, mapred-site.xml and yarn-site.xml in the hadoop2/bootstrap_hadoop2.py.

# Usage

Try to run a local Hadoop (e.g. for development and testing)

easy_install saga-hadoop saga-hadoop –resource fork://localhost

Try to run a Hadoop cluster inside a PBS/Torque job:

saga-hadoop –resource pbs+ssh://india.futuregrid.org –number_cores 8
