Let us see how we can configure Fair Scheduler using Cloudera Manager. Log in to Cloudera Manager and go to YARN and then click on Configuration Search for “Scheduler” Select the property “yarn.resourcemanager.scheduler.class” to “org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.resourcemanager.scheduler.fair.FairScheduler“ Add the XML file configuration in the property – “Fair Scheduler XML Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve)” https://gist.github.com/dgadiraju/413128425dd38afa43797f1efbea7fad And then …

Even though there is no significant difference in the syntax of the commands or running applications, still there are some differences which both Administrators, as well as Developers, should be aware of. On a typical configuration cluster, we can connect to HDFS or YARN by using URI from the client. For Namenode URI originally look …
