1. Install the Tez RPM

On all client/gateway nodes:

Install the Tez RPMs on all client/gateway nodes:
- For RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux:
```
yum install tez
```
- For SLES:
```
zypper install tez
```
- For Ubuntu:
```
apt-get install tez
```
Execute the following commands to create the Tez configuration directories. These HDFS directories must be publicly accessible.

Note
The $HDFS_USER is the user that owns the HDFS service. For example, hdfs.
```
su $HDFS_USER
hdfs dfs -mkdir -p /apps/tez
```

	Note
The `$HDFS_USER` is the user that owns the HDFS service. For example, `hdfs`.

Execute the following commands from any one of the cluster client nodes to upload the Tez jar files and their dependencies into HDFS:

su $HDFS_USER
hdfs dfs -copyFromLocal /usr/lib/tez/* /apps/tez
hdfs dfs -chown -R  hdfs:users /apps/tez
hdfs dfs -chmod 755 /apps
hdfs dfs -chmod 755 /apps/tez
hdfs dfs -chmod 755 /apps/tez/lib/
hdfs dfs -chmod 644 /apps/tez/*.jar
hdfs dfs -chmod 644 /apps/tez/lib/*.jar

Execute the following command to verify that the files were copied with the preceeding step:

hdfs dfs -ls /apps/tez

This should return a list of files that looks similar to this:
