Description
From irc:
<wad> Hi folks. I'm going through these instructions, setting up a little prototype cluster (7 machines):
<wad> https://ccp.cloudera.com/display/CDHDOC/CDH3+Deployment+on+a+Cluster#CDH3DeploymentonaCluster-CreatingandConfiguringthe%7B%7Bmapred.system.dir%7D%7DDirectoryinHDFS
<wad> But some of these steps seem to be seriously in the wrong order.
<wad> For example, in the "creating and configuring the mapred.system.dir directory in HDFS", it say, "After you start HDFS and before you start JobTracker"....
<wad> Um, we haven't started HDFS yet.... and we're supposed to do this after we do?
<wad> I'm just hoping for a sanity check here.
