I need to update those to be current with the Cassandra source download. You’re right, you would just use what’s in the examples directory now for Pig. You should be able to run the examples, but generally you need to specify the partitioner of the cluster, the host name of a node in the cluster, and the port. Those are the required things to set, either in environment variables or in hadoop properties. There are other properties that you can set such as read/write consistency level and such as well. A good place to look for a lot of those properties is in the ConfigHelper.java file under the org.apache.cassandra.hadoop package.
