How to confirm if Hue plugins are properly set

Question

Hi. I set the Hue plugins for a JobTracker on a different host by adding the following lines. 

<property>
  <name>jobtracker.thrift.address</name>
  <value>0.0.0.0:9290</value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>mapred.jobtracker.plugins</name>
  <value>org.apache.hadoop.thriftfs.ThriftJobTrackerPlugin</value>
  <description>Comma-separated list of jobtracker plug-ins to be activated.</description>
</property>

But I am not able to tell if this is working or not. How can I confirm it?

Answer 1

You can confirm it like this:

$ tail --lines=500 /var/log/hadoop-0.20-mapreduce/hadoop*jobtracker*.log | grep ThriftPlugin
2009-09-28 16:30:44,337 INFO org.apache.hadoop.thriftfs.ThriftPluginServer: Starting Thrift server
2009-09-28 16:30:44,419 INFO org.apache.hadoop.thriftfs.ThriftPluginServer:
