Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying a faulty node in a Hadoop cluster using an interface to the Hadoop cluster are described. A method may include receiving, at an interface to a Hadoop cluster, an input requesting diagnostic information for one or more nodes in the Hadoop cluster. The input may also specify the one or more nodes in the Hadoop cluster for which diagnostic information is requested. The method may further include initiating a diagnostic analysis of the one or more nodes, and displaying, at the interface, the diagnostic information for the one or more nodes. The diagnostic information may identify a node exhibiting a fault and be displayed while the diagnostic analysis is in progress.

Abstract: A service processor computing arrangement is associated with a cellular multiprocessing cell. The arrangement includes a scan machine coupled to communicate with processing hardware of the cell and a service processor coupled to an external communications interface of the scan machine. The scan machine includes remote scan software that performs at least one of monitoring and configuration of the processing hardware, and a first remote install program that receives update data via the external communications interface and applies the update data to the remote scan software. The service processor includes a server control program that performs at least one of monitoring and configuring the cell via the remote scan machine, and a second remote install program that applies the update data to the scan machine via the first remote install program.
