Not able to start Job History Server in Hadoop 2 8 1

Question

I recently have setup the hadoop in my local pc. I have used VM and have install hadoop on centOS. Now, when I execute jps command to list all the process, I am able to see job history server running.

So, how to I start this? Is there any extra configuration required to start Job history server?

Answer 1

You have to start JobHistoryServer process specifically using the mr-jobhistory-daemon.sh script. Here, is the commandt:

$HADOOP_HOME/sbin/mr-jobhistory-daemon.sh start historyserver

In case you are going ahead with the pseudo distributed or local mode, no extra configuration is required.
