hi ... hope someone is able to help me out with this ... have tried an
exhaustive search of google and AWS forum but there is little help in this
regard and all that i found didnt work for me!

i want to copy data from HDFS to my S3 bucket ... to test whether my HDFS
url is correct i tried the fs -cat command which works just fine ... spits
contents of the file
ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-04-6E-58:/state/partition1/hadoop-1.0.1$ *bin/hadoop
fs -cat hdfs://10.240.113.162:9000/data/hello.txt*

but when i try to distance copy the file from hdfs (same location as above)
to my s3 bucket it says connection to server refused! have looked up Google
exhaustively but cannot get an answer. they say that the port may be
blocked but have checked that 9000-9001 are not blocked .... could it be an
autghentication issue? just saying ... out of ideas.

Hi Momina,

Could it be that you misspelled the port in your source path, you mind trying with: hdfs://10.240.113.162:9000/data/

hi Momina

maybe the problem is your DNS Resolution. You must have IP hostname
enteries if all nodes in /etc/hosts file. like this

127.0.0.1 localhost

you may want to try following command

instead of using hdfs try hftp

hadoop -i -ppgu -log /tmp/mylog -m 20 distcp hftp://servername:port/path
 (hdfs://target.server:port/path | s3://id:sercret@domain)
