5.1. Downloading and Installing the HBase Application Package

To install the HBase Application Package:
Make a working directory for the HBase-on-Slider application package:
```
mkdir -p /usr/work/app-packages/hbase
```
Download the HBase-on-Slider application package for your operating system to the /usr/work/app-packages/hbase directory. For example, use the following command to download the centos6 version:
```
cd /usr/work/app-packages/hbase
wget http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP/centos6/2.x/updates/2.2.8.0/slider-app-packages/hbase/slider-hbase-app-package-0.98.4.2.2.8.0-3150-hadoop2.zip
```
Use the following command format to install the application package on YARN:
```
su <user>
/usr/hdp/current/slider-client/bin/./slider install-package --name HBASE --package <package path>
```
Where <user> is the user who will create the HBase application instance.
For example, if you downloaded the HBase package to the /usr/work/app-packages/hbase folder:
```
su <user>
/usr/hdp/current/slider-client/bin/./slider install-package --name HBASE --package /usr/work/app-packages/hbase/slider-hbase-app-package-0.98.4.2.2.8.0-3150-hadoop2.zip
```
Note that the --name (in this case, "HBASE") should match the value of the <name> element in the package metainfo.xml flle, and that the install destination in HDFS is in the user's home directory under ./slider/package/HBASE/*.zip
