一、异常现象
安装好hadoop之后，执行格式化namenode命令时，抛出以下异常：
// :: WARN net.DNS: Unable to determine local hostname -falling back to "localhost"
java.net.UnknownHostException: rayner: rayner

二、异常原因
是因为更改了虚拟机的hostname
vim /etc/sysconfig/network
而/etc/hosts 下的文件没有修改
三、异常解决
（1）编辑 /etc/hosts 文件
vim /etc/hosts
（2）将 主机IP 和 对应的主机名称 进行映射
添加下图红框中内容
192.168.1.102 rayner
