Downloading and Publishing the Parcel Repository

Download the parcels that you want to install and publish the parcel directory.

  1. To download the files for the latest Clouder Runtime 7 release, create the following new folder on the Web server host which holds the repository you have created for the Cloudera Manager deliverables:
    sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/cloudera-repos/cdh7
  2. Connect to the cloudera online archive located under archive.cloudera.com/p/cdh7. You can reach that location directly by typing on your browser https://[username]:[password]@archive.cloudera.com/p/cdh7 and then you should choose the relevant release you need, and in it, choose parcels and download the files related to your operating system (.parcel, .parcel.sha1, .parcel.sha256). In case needed, pass the files to the customer for approval, and once they are approved, ask the customer to place them in the target folder created above (or into the customer organizational repository in case such is used).
    Once the files were moved into the folder, ensure that they have the same permissions as the cm7 files by running the following command:
    sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/cloudera-repos/cdh7
  3. Visit the Repository URL http://<Web_server>/cloudera-repos/ in your browser and verify the files you downloaded are present. If you do not see anything, your Web server may have been configured to not show indexes.
