Perform the following steps to configure
the PDI client
host machine to run jobs or transformations from the command line interface
(CLI).
-
Create a connection to the Hadoop cluster where you want to run your job or
transformation.
-
Create and test the job or transformation in the PDI client
to verify it works as expected.
-
Navigate to the design-tools/data-integration/plugins/pentaho-big-data-plugin directory and open the plugin.properties file with any text
editor.
-
Set the value of the hadoop.configurations.path
property to the location of the metastore directory, such
as
hadoop.configurations.path=/home/<user>/.pentaho.
The metastore directory is created when you
set up a named connection to the Hadoop cluster. The default metastore location
for the PDI client is
home/<user>/.pentaho/metastore.
-
5. Save and close the plugin.properties file.
