White Elephant with Clouera?

avatar
Expert Contributor

I found a very good tool called White Elephant

 

http://data.linkedin.com/opensource/white-elephant

 

It looks like the only tool to perform capacity planning on Hadoop clusters.

 

I want to know if anyone can confirm if this tool would work on CDH 5.2.1

Cloudera doesn't have an official position on this tool yet. The
project page does mention that Hadoop 2.0 is not supported, so I doubt
it will work with CDH 5.2.1. You're of course welcome to provide
feedback if you do try it.

Note that Cloudera Manager does allow you to monitor several metrics
across the cluster. Maybe if you had specific questions on tasks, we
can assist without having to use an extra tool.
