<p>How to find Hadoop HDFS directory on my system?
I need this to run following command - </p>

<pre><code>hadoop dfs -copyFromLocal &lt;local-dir&gt; &lt;hdfs-dir&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>In this command I don't knon my hdfs-dir.</p>

<p>Not sure if its helpful or not but I ran following command and got this output - </p>

<pre><code> hdfs dfs -ls
-rw-r--r--   3 popeye hdfs  127162942 2016-04-01 19:47 .
</code></pre>

<p>In hdfs-site.xml, I found following entry - </p>

<pre><code>&lt;property&gt;
      &lt;name&gt;dfs.datanode.data.dir&lt;/name&gt;
      &lt;value&gt;/hadoop/hdfs/data&lt;/value&gt;
      &lt;final&gt;true&lt;/final&gt;
&lt;/property&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I tried to run following command but it gives error -</p>

<pre><code>[root@sandbox try]# hdfs dfs -copyFromLocal 1987.csv /hadoop/hdfs/data
copyFromLocal: `/hadoop/hdfs/data': No such file or directory
</code></pre>

<p>FYI - I am doing all this on hortonworks sandbox on azure server.</p>
