How to expose HDFS in one cluster and access it with DataTap in another cluster/tenant?

Question

I have created a 6.3x Cloudera cluster inside HPE Container Platform.

I would like to expose the HDFS so that it can be accessed via DataTap on other HPE Container Platform clusters for basic demonstration purposes (no HA or security required).

My cluster node info looks like this:

I understand that I need to expose port 8020 on the primary node - how can I do that?

You will see the new cluster service in the node info screen:

You can then create the DataTap using the hostname and port from the previous screen:

If you select the DataTap, you should be able to see the /tmp and /user folders:
