To upload a file from your local system to Edureka's Cloud Lab for practicing an HDFS wordcount problem, follow these steps:
1. Log in to Edureka Cloud Lab:
- Access the Edureka Cloud Lab using your login credentials.
2. Open the Terminal in the Lab:
- Once logged in, access the terminal from the lab environment where you will interact with HDFS.
3. Navigate to the Appropriate HDFS Directory:
- Use the `hadoop fs -ls` command to check directories and decide where you want to upload the file.
- If needed, create a new directory using `hadoop fs -mkdir /path/to/directory`.
4. File Upload from Local System:
- Look for a "File Upload" or "Upload" option in the Cloud Lab interface. Typically, there is a GUI-based upload tool within the lab interface. Click on this option, select your file from the local system, and upload it.
5. Confirm File Location in the Lab:
- After uploading the file, ensure it has been moved to the correct HDFS directory by listing the directory contents:
hadoop fs -ls /path/to/directory
6. Move the File into HDFS (if required):
If you uploaded the file into the Cloud Lab's local environment but it isn't yet in HDFS, use the following command to move it into HDFS:
hadoop fs -put /local/path/to/file /hdfs/path/
- For example:
```bash
hadoop fs -put wordcount.txt /user/username/hdfsdir/
```
You should now have your wordcount file uploaded and ready for use with HDFS operations! If you encounter any specific issues, let me know.
