I'm installing CDH5 on Centos 6.5 using Cloudera Manager 5.2. Every steps in "Cluster Installation" phase finished seamlessly. But in the last step of "Cluster Setup" phase, it keeps failing on "creating HDFS /tmp directory".
/tmp already exists as a directory created by the server.
I've looked at the script that is attempting to create the dir ( /usr/lib/cmf/service/hdfs/hdfs.sh ) and if the directory exists it should not even try to create the directory and keep going. Any ideas? Is there a way to change the hdfs /tmp dir?
I'm really curious why they would use /tmp in the first place, knowing EVERY server has it created already..
