How to create multi-level directories in Hadoop?

To create multiple levels of directories in Hadoop, you can use the following command:

Create a new directory at the specified path in Hadoop.

The -p option can be used to recursively create directories. For example, if you want to create a multi-level directory named “dir1/dir2/dir3” in the root directory, you can use the following command:

Create a directory called “dir3” inside directories “dir1” and “dir2” using Hadoop.

This will create a directory named “dir1/dir2/dir3” in the Hadoop file system. If the directory already exists, the command will ignore creating it and continue to create other directories that do not exist.

Please note that the hadoop fs command is used to interact with the Hadoop file system, so it is important to ensure that the Hadoop environment variables are properly configured and that the hadoop fs command can be accessed in the command prompt.
