WARN util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable

Using hadoop 3.0 alpha 2 version.

Any help is appreciated

Answer 1

I also encountered the same thing, I did so I found that my pdsh default rcmd is rsh, not ssh, rsh and ssh remote login authentication is not the same, when installing hadoop I configured ssh localhost password-free login, but rsh is not possible.

so，try：

1.check your pdsh default rcmd rsh

pdsh -q -w localhost

See what your pdsh default rcmd is.

2.Modify pdsh's default rcmd to ssh

export PDSH_RCMD_TYPE=ssh

you can be added to ~/.bashrc, and source ~/.bashrc

3.sbin / start-dfs.sh
