Create directories and configure ownership and permissions as described below. Run the following commands:

mkdir -p $FALCON_LOG_DIR;chown -R $FALCON_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP $FALCON_LOG_DIR;chmod -R 755 $FALCON_LOG_DIR;

mkdir -p $FALCON_PID_DIR;chown -R $FALCON_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP $FALCON_PID_DIR;chmod -R 755 $FALCON_PID_DIR;

mkdir -p $FALCON_DATA_DIR;chown -R $FALCON_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP $FALCON_DATA_DIR;chmod -R 755 $FALCON_DATA_DIR;

mkdir -p <graph.storage.directory>;chown -R $FALCON_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP <graph.storage.directory>;chmod -R 755 <graph.storage.directory>;

mkdir -p <config.store.uri>;chown -R $FALCON_USER:$HADOOP_GROUP <config.store.uri>;chmod -R 755 <config.store.uri>;

where:

$FALCON_LOG_DIR is the directory to store the Falcon logs. For example, /var/log/falcon.

$FALCON_PID_DIR is the directory to store the Falcon process ID. For example, /var/run/falcon.

$FALCON_DATA_DIR is the directory to store the falcon active mq data. For example, /hadoop/falcon/embeddedmq/data.

<graph.storage.directory> is the graph storage directory defined in Falcon startup.properties key "*.falcon.graph.storage.directory". For example, /usr/hdp/current/falcon-server/data/graphdb.

<config.store.uri> is the location to store user entity configurations defined in Falcon startup.properties key "*.config.store.uri". For example, /usr/hdp/current/falcon-server/data/falcon-store/.

$FALCON_USER is the user owning the Falcon service. For example, falcon.

$HADOOP_GROUP is a common group shared by services. For example, hadoop.

For the Hive DR feature, the UI expects the template files to be copied to /apps/data-mirroring path. Create the following directories in HDFS:

su - $FALCON_USER
hdfs dfs -mkdir /apps/data-mirroring
hdfs dfs -mkdir /apps/data-mirroring/workflows/
hdfs dfs -copyFromLocal /usr/hdp/current/falcon-server/data-mirroring /apps
hdfs dfs -chmod -R 770 /apps/data-mirroring
hdfs dfs -chown -R falcon:users /apps/data-mirroring

where:

$FALCON_USER is the user owning the Falcon service. For example, falcon.
