Hi Team,

I am new to linux environment and I m trying to practice my hdpcd exam in AWS instance. I am trying to copy the file from local to hdfs it throws access denied exception.

If i tried with hdfs sudo user it is asking for the password for the sudo user horton.

If i ssh using root@namenode I m not able to access the local file system,

Help me with the steps to do the file transfer in aws instance from local the hdfs system.

You can can use simple hadoop -put source(local file system) destination (hdfs path). Make sure you have permission to access files on both local file system and hdfs.

I have given the write access to the destination folder in hdfs and it worked. Thanks for the reply
