Installing the Falcon Package

  1. Install the Falcon RPM or package by using the following command:

    • RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux:

      yum install falcon

    • For SLES:

      zypper install falcon

    • For Ubuntu or Debian:

      HDP support for Debian 6 is deprecated with HDP 2.4.2. Future versions of HDP will no longer be supported on Debian 6.

      apt-get install falcon

  2. After installation, verify that the owner and group of falcon.war in /usr/hdp/current/falcon-server/webapp/ is falcon:falcon. If the owner and group are not falcon:falcon, change them using the following command:

    chown falcon:falcon falcon.war.

  3. Update the falcon.url in /etc/falcon/conf/client.properties to use the web url of falcon server.

  4. By default Falcon starts at port 15443. Set ".falcon.enableTLS" to false in /etc/falcon/conf/startup-properties to disable SSL and to start Falcon at port 15000.
