There seem to be the following primary config locations:

  • /opt/mapr/conf (MapR specific config files - warden.conf being the primary)
  • /opt/mapr/hadoop/hadoop-0.20.2/conf (Hadoop config files)
  • /opt/mapr/hbase/hbase/hbase-0.90.2/conf (HBase config files)
  • etc

How does mapr sync configuration system changes? Do I need to manually sync all changes to these files across nodes or does mapr do some level of syncing on some/all of these?

/opt/mapr/conf/warden.conf is node dependent and I doubt you need to change anything there manually. Currently we do not have mechanism to centrally modify Hadoop and Hbase configs.

This node-by-node management is inherited from Hadoop, of course. We have fewer important variables in these conf files, but they are still node specific to some degree.

@TedDunning does this also account for uniform clusters?

Yes. Uniform clusters are only uniform because all nodes have the same values for node-specific configuration variables.

An update: with MapR 2.0 onwards, the config files can be centrally managed. See http://mapr.com/doc/display/MapR/Central+Configuration
