Configuring your HDInsight Service Cluster.
You created your HDInsight Cluster and ASV storage environment. Now
you need to move data to the environment for processing. We'll speak more

To set up any Storage Explorer with your ASV account, navigate to your
Storage page in Windows Azure and click the storage container that you
want to associate with the Storage Explorer. Then click Manage Access Keys
at the bottom of the web page. The pop-up web page provides you with your
storage account name and primary and secondary access keys. Ideally, you
will keep the primary access key to yourself and share the secondary access
key with someone else who might need to access your data. You can always
regenerate access keys, which will force users to reset them in their client
tool.
