  • NameNode Hostname - the host name of the NameNode server or the logical name of the NameNode in a high availability configuration.
  • NameNode Port - the TCP port of the name node. Leave empty if the NameNode is in a high availability configuration.
  • HttpFS Hostname - the host name of the Hadoop HttpFS gateway node. This should be available to Integrate.io ETL’s platform.
  • HttpFS Port - the TCP port of the Hadoop HttpFS gateway node (Default is 14000).
