1. Enabling HDP Services

By default the following HDP services are disabled, to allow these services to start and stop using the Start Local or Remote HDP script you must enable them:

  • Apache Hadoop falcon

  • Apache Hadoop flumeagent

  • Apache Hadoop rest

  • Apache Hadoop thrift or Apache Hadoop thrift2

Once enabled, these services will start and stop using the Start Local Services or Start Remote Services scripts.

  1. Enable Thrift on a cluster node:

    sc config thrift start= demand
    [Note]Note

    In test environments you may want to enable thrift2 instead. HDP 2.1 includes both Thrift and Thrift2, these services use the same port and cannot run at the same time. Currently, Thrift2 is Alpha software and should only be used in test environments.

  2. Enable Falcon:

    sc config falcon start= demand
  3. Enable the Flume Agent:

    sc config flumeagent start= demand
  4. (Optional) To allow access to the cluster through the Knox Gateway, enable Rest on a cluster node:

    sc config rest start= demand
