Copy data from cloudera hdfs to azure blob storage

[#1]

In cdh 5.10.2, we need copy data from hdfs to azure but we have problems to put files.

• After config the azure account and test the access from azure storage explorer.
• we config the core-site.xml with the credentials (Account + key) and restart.

• we test the command distcp but the follow error appears:

  hadoop distcp /user/myuser/file1.txt wasb://cont1@testblobsAccount1.blob.core.windows.net/folder1/ -log /usr/myuser/

we config the core-site.xml with the credentials (Account + key) and restart
What do you mean by restart, Is it HDFS service restart across cluster

[#3]

I restarted the service hdfs and then the cluster without results. Finally i used adl (Azure datalake) in place to wasb.

Hi @cgomezfl,

In regarding to the original error message:

com.microsoft.windowsazure.storage.StorageException: The value for one of the HTTP headers is not in the correct format.

This error will occur if the Azure Account Kind is not set properly when creating the storage account. To correct this, set the Account Kind to General Purpose and the Access type to Blob within the Blob service configuration.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Li
