Table Paths
Tables are stored in the MapR file system. When providing the path to a table in the Java API, maprcli commands, or mapr dbshell, use these conventions.
- For a path on the local cluster, start the path at the volume mount point. For example,
for a table named
test
under a volume with a mount point at/volume1
, specify the following path:/volume1/test
- For a path on a remote cluster, you must also specify the cluster name in the path. For
example, for a table named
customer
involume1
in thesanfrancisco
cluster, specify the following path:/mapr/sanfrancisco/volume1/customer
