how to create datanodes

[#1]

hi, 

I am using cloudera quickstart on my windows. the default browser page show me my cluster information namenode ip address 127.0.0.1 and 1 datanode ip address 127.0.0.1. i want to create more datanodes on my this default cluster please help how to create datanodes on cluster.

And my hdfs service is also giving bad health (red circle) and showing a warning message of 'you have one datanode and quickstart vm required atleast 3 datanodes'.

You need to configure a cluster to have more datanodes.You must have installed the VM on single box.Either create more than 1 VM and start with psuedo distributed mode.

You can create the same way you have created the first one and start  less services there.
