Set command variables

Setting these commonly used command variables makes it easier to run command-line examples on your local machine or in Cloud Shell.

Perform the following steps to set command variables.

1. Export the project using the following example:

   $ export PROJECT=project;export HOSTNAME=hostname;export ZONE=zone

   1. Set the PROJECT variable to your Google Cloud project ID.

   2. Set the HOSTNAME variable to the name of the master node in your Dataproc cluster.

      Note: The master name ends with an -m suffix.

   3. Set the ZONE variable to the zone of the instances in your Dataproc cluster.
