Configure and Validate Apache Falcon

[Note]Note

In HDP 2.5.5, if authorization is enabled (for example, in the properties file with *.falcon.security.authorization.enabled=true") then Access Control List (ACL) is mandated for all entities.

Upgrade Apache Falcon after you have upgraded HDFS, Hive, Oozie, and Pig. Stop Oozie jobs while upgrading Falcon.

  1. Replace your configuration after upgrading. Copy /etc/falcon/conf from the template to the conf directory in falcon hosts.

  2. Check your Falcon entities. There should be no changes, but in some cases you may need to update your entities post-upgrade.

  3. In HDP 2.5.5 for Falcon, TLS is enabled by default. When TLS is enabled, Falcon starts on https://<falcon_host>.15443/. You can disable TLS by adding the following line to the startup.properties file.

    "*.falcon.enableTLS=false

  4. If Transport Layer Security (TLS) is disabled, check the client.properties file to make sure the property "falcon.uri" is set as follows:

    falcon.uri=http://<falcon_host>:15000/
