Hadoop on Sun Solaris

Can I build Hadoop on Sun Solaris. The documentation says it is only supported on Linux, Open Solaris and on Windows for Dev purposes. I want to build a prototype on Hadoop on our existing OS which is Sun Solaris. This is purely for proto-typing purposes only. As Hadoop is completely written in Java, I think I can install on Hadoop. Please advise.

Thanks,
Rajendra

Rajendra,

Hadoop works fine on solaris. We have had it in production on solaris  
for a number of months now.

Good luck!

Best,
Jochen

I had to hard code the os name in the build.xml file to get the native
compression codec shared libraries to build for hadoop 19

I'm using it on Solaris without any problem.  Of course, I'm just using 
the provided JAR files.  As long as you have all the right pieces, e.g. 
ant, javac, the libraries, you should be able to build.

What is so confusing about putting Java in the name of every product? :)

Yes. Besides, you could try yourself instead (literally 15 minutes to
make it clear)... :-)

Same thing, just newer (SunOS 5.11). Get Java 6 for appropriate
platform and that's it. It is just like Sun in their "best" traditions
continue to make a complete mess with their brands and thus
professionally confuse people as much as possible... I really hate
that.
