Shutting Down Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) - Hadoop Online Training


If you want to shut down the HDFS functionality of your cluster (either because you do not want Hadoop occupying memory resources when it is not in use, or because you want to restart the cluster for upgrading, configuration changes, etc.), then this can be accomplished by logging in to the NameNode machine and running:
  someone@namenode:hadoop$ bin/stop-dfs.sh
This command must be performed by the same user who started HDFS with bin/start-dfs.sh.
