But my question is that why every time getting this error? This is not a much concern Since i am running <code>Single Node cluster</code>. But in real production environment this may cause Data loose. My guess is since i am using <code>/tmp</code> directory. </p>

    1. COYou are right. The /tmp directory gets cleaned after every reboot. You are better off moving to a different directory by first changing hadoop.tmp.dir in the core-site.xml which is defaulted to /tmp/hadoop-${user.name}

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
