# {{< icon "fa fa-globe" >}} HDFS
[HDFS](https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HdfsDesign.html) is a
distributed file-system, part of the [Apache Hadoop](https://hadoop.apache.org/) framework.
Paths are specified as `remote:` or `remote:path/to/dir`.
## Configuration
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`. First run:
rclone config
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
```
No remotes found, make a new one?
n) New remote
s) Set configuration password
q) Quit config
n/s/q> n
name> remote
Type of storage to configure.
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
[skip]
XX / Hadoop distributed file system
\ "hdfs"
[skip]
Storage> hdfs
** See help for hdfs backend at: https://rclone.org/hdfs/ **
hadoop name node and port
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
1 / Connect to host namenode at port 8020
\ "namenode:8020"
namenode> namenode.hadoop:8020
hadoop user name
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
1 / Connect to hdfs as root
\ "root"
username> root
Edit advanced config? (y/n)
y) Yes
n) No (default)
y/n> n
Remote config
Configuration complete.
Options:
- type: hdfs
- namenode: namenode.hadoop:8020
- username: root
Keep this "remote" remote?
y) Yes this is OK (default)
e) Edit this remote
d) Delete this remote
y/e/d> y
Current remotes:
Name Type
==== ====
hadoop hdfs
e) Edit existing remote
n) New remote
d) Delete remote
r) Rename remote
c) Copy remote
s) Set configuration password
q) Quit config
e/n/d/r/c/s/q> q
```
This remote is called `remote` and can now be used like this
See all the top level directories
rclone lsd remote:
List the contents of a directory
rclone ls remote:directory
Sync the remote `directory` to `/home/local/directory`, deleting any excess files.
rclone sync --interactive remote:directory /home/local/directory
### Setting up your own HDFS instance for testing
You may start with a [manual setup](https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SingleCluster.html)
or use the docker image from the tests:
If you want to build the docker image
```
git clone https://github.com/rclone/rclone.git
cd rclone/fstest/testserver/images/test-hdfs
docker build --rm -t rclone/test-hdfs .
```
Or you can just use the latest one pushed
```
docker run --rm --name "rclone-hdfs" -p 127.0.0.1:9866:9866 -p 127.0.0.1:8020:8020 --hostname "rclone-hdfs" rclone/test-hdfs
```
**NB** it need few seconds to startup.
For this docker image the remote needs to be configured like this:
```
[remote]
type = hdfs
namenode = 127.0.0.1:8020
username = root
```
You can stop this image with `docker kill rclone-hdfs` (**NB** it does not use volumes, so all data
uploaded will be lost.)
### Modification times
Time accurate to 1 second is stored.
### Checksum
No checksums are implemented.
### Usage information
You can use the `rclone about remote:` command which will display filesystem size and current usage.
### Restricted filename characters
In addition to the [default restricted characters set](/overview/#restricted-characters)
the following characters are also replaced:
| Character | Value | Replacement |
| --------- |:-----:|:-----------:|
| : | 0x3A | : |
Invalid UTF-8 bytes will also be [replaced](/overview/#invalid-utf8).
{{< rem autogenerated options start" - DO NOT EDIT - instead edit fs.RegInfo in backend/hdfs/hdfs.go then run make backenddocs" >}}
### Standard options
Here are the Standard options specific to hdfs (Hadoop distributed file system).
#### --hdfs-namenode
Hadoop name nodes and ports.
E.g. "namenode-1:8020,namenode-2:8020,..." to connect to host namenodes at port 8020.
Properties:
- Config: namenode
- Env Var: RCLONE_HDFS_NAMENODE
- Type: CommaSepList
- Default:
#### --hdfs-username
Hadoop user name.
Properties:
- Config: username
- Env Var: RCLONE_HDFS_USERNAME
- Type: string
- Required: false
- Examples:
- "root"
- Connect to hdfs as root.
### Advanced options
Here are the Advanced options specific to hdfs (Hadoop distributed file system).
#### --hdfs-service-principal-name
Kerberos service principal name for the namenode.
Enables KERBEROS authentication. Specifies the Service Principal Name
(SERVICE/FQDN) for the namenode. E.g. \"hdfs/namenode.hadoop.docker\"
for namenode running as service 'hdfs' with FQDN 'namenode.hadoop.docker'.
Properties:
- Config: service_principal_name
- Env Var: RCLONE_HDFS_SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_NAME
- Type: string
- Required: false
#### --hdfs-data-transfer-protection
Kerberos data transfer protection: authentication|integrity|privacy.
Specifies whether or not authentication, data signature integrity
checks, and wire encryption are required when communicating with
the datanodes. Possible values are 'authentication', 'integrity'
and 'privacy'. Used only with KERBEROS enabled.
Properties:
- Config: data_transfer_protection
- Env Var: RCLONE_HDFS_DATA_TRANSFER_PROTECTION
- Type: string
- Required: false
- Examples:
- "privacy"
