OLIPHANT Procedure
PROC OLIPHANT Statement
Enables adding, removing, and managing SASHDAT files in Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS).
Syntax
<PATH='HDFS-path'> <LOGUPDATE> <INNAMEONLY>
Required Arguments
HOST=
specifies the host name or IP address of the grid host. This is the machine that is running the Hadoop NameNode that is provided by SAS High-Performance Deployment of Hadoop. If you do not specify the HOST= option, it is determined from the GRIDHOST= environment variable.
| Alias | NAMENODE= |
INSTALL=
specifies the path to the TKGrid software on the grid host. If you do not specify this option, it is determined from the GRIDINSTALLLOC= environment variable.
| Alias | INSTALLLOC= |
Oliphant Options
PATH=
specifies the directory in HDFS to use. This value can be overridden with a PATH= option on an ADD, REMOVE, or DETAILS statement.
| Alias | OUTDIR= |
LOGUPDATE
provides progress messages in the SAS log about the data transfer to the grid host. The data transfer size is not necessarily the same as the block size that is used to form blocks in HDFS. The data transfer size is selected to optimize network throughput.
| Alias | LOGNOTE |
INNAMEONLY
specifies that data identified in an ADD statement should be sent as a single block to the Hadoop NameNode for distribution. This option is appropriate for smaller data sets.
| Restriction | The BLOCKSIZE= option is ignored. |
