Veritas NetBackup™ for Hadoop Administrator's Guide

Configuring a custom port for the Hadoop cluster

You can configure a custom port using the Hadoop configuration file. By default, NetBackup uses port 50070.

To configure a custom port for the Hadoop cluster

  1. Update hadoop.conf file with the following parameters:
    {
     	"application_servers": {
    		 "hostname_of_namenode1":{
    			
    				"port":port_of_namenode1
    		}
    }
    
  2. Copy this file to the following location on all the backup hosts:

    /usr/openv/var/global/
