Flume is included in the HDP repository, but it is not installed automatically as part of the standard HDP installation process.
You must have installed at least core Hadoop on your system using one of the available methods. See HDP Deployment Options for more information on your options.
You must have set up your
JAVA_HOMEenvironment variable per your operating system. See the various installation guides above for more information.
To install Flume, from a terminal window type:
[For RHEL or CentOS]
yum install flume yum install flume-node
or
[For SLES]
zypper install flume zypper install flume-node
The installation process automatically sets up the appropriate flume user and flume group in the operating system.
