By default, Cloudbreak uses the image catalog provided with Cloudbreak. If you would like to use a custom image catalog instead of the default image catalog, you must first create and register it. For complete instructions, refer to Custom images.
Choose image type
By default, Cloudbreak uses the included prewarmed images with default Ambari and HDP/HDF version, but you can select a different prewarmed or base image to use for your cluster. Cloudbreak supports the following types of images for launching clusters:
Image type | Description | Default images provided | Support for custom images |
---|---|---|---|
Prewarmed Image | By default, Cloudbreak launches clusters from prewarmed images. Prewarmed images include the operating system as well as Ambari and HDP/HDF. The Ambari and HDP/HDF version used by prewarmed images cannot be customized. | Yes | No |
Base Image | Base images include default configuration and default tooling. These images include the operating system but do not include Ambari or HDP/HDF software. If you would like to use an Ambari and HDP/HDF versions different than what the prewarmed image includes, you must select to use a base image. | Yes | Yes |
By default, Cloudbreak uses the included default prewarmed images, which include the operating system, as well as Ambari and HDP/HDF packages installed.
