Using the BDFS stage to connect to Hadoop server

udayanguha · Post by **udayanguha** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 12:27 pm

Hi,
I want to extract some files from a Hadoop server to my Datastage server using the BDFS stage.
I am able to ping the Hadoop server from UNIX server but when I use the BDFS stage, its unable to connect to specified server and port.

I went through the links provided by at IBM knowledge center:

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledge ... ml?lang=en

But I am unable to understand anything explained in this. Can someone please help me in a less complicated way how to configure the environment for using the BDFS stage.

Which flavor of Unix is on DataStage server?

Hi,
we are using the Linux version of UNIX

I don't know if this is critical or not to the discussion but would wager that the next question would be - what flavor of Linux? There are... several.

I am not very sure about the Linux version right now but will update later on once I get to my system. But still suggestions and solutions for Hadoop connectivity are welcome.

Any suggestions on this

Contact support if none of those steps make sense to you. Or do you have a DataStage admin that could work through them for you?
