Hmmm, all these files are owned by user 'libing' ...
that is different from my set-up.

Which manual are you exactly following for the pseudo-distributed
installation? In the Cloudera manual that I followed (cdh3u2) there
was a mention of making different users IIRC.

Also, in my set-up the hadoop is started automatically at boot-up
from the scripts in

/etc/rc2.d/S20hadoop-...

where user root then performs an su to user
=> hdfs for the Name, Secondaryname, Data node
=> mapred for the Jobtracker and Tasktracker.

I am not sure it is actually the intention that you start the
5 hadoop processes with the

"... $HADOOP/bin/start-dfs.sh ..."

command as you describe.

I stop and start them with

sudo /etc/init.d/hadoop-0.20-datanode {stop|start}
sudo /etc/init.d/hadoop-0.20-namenode {stop|start}
sudo /etc/init.d/hadoop-0.20-secondarynamenode {stop|start}
sudo /etc/init.d/hadoop-0.20-tasktracker {stop|start}
sudo /etc/init.d/hadoop-0.20-jobtracker {stop|start}

and this seems to be stable for now :-)

But maybe the manual that you follow gives other advise ?

HTH (not sure, I am a beginner too ...)
