1. About the HDP MSI Installer and HDP Public Properties

This section describes the HDP MSI installer command line options and explains which HDP public properties to use when installing a multi-node Hadoop Cluster. The installation process runs in the background.

HDP MSI Installer command format

The HDP MSI Installer command includes the msiexec command, a set of standard installer options, and HDP public properties. For example:

msiexec /qn /lv log_file /i msi_file MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION=1
HDP_DIR=install_dir 
HDP_LAYOUT=cluster_properties_file 
HDP_USER_PASSWORD=password 
DESTROY_DATA=YES_OR_NO 
HDP=YES_OR_NO

KNOX=YES_or_NO 
KNOX_MASTER_SECRET=secret 
FALCON=YES_or_NO

where:

msiexec /qn /lv log_file /i msi_file MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION=1 is the set of standard installer options recommended by Hortonworks.

Everything following /i msi_file MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION=1 is a public property.
