Adding RAZ service

Learn how to add Ranger Remote Authorization Service (RAZ) service to your cluster.

Perform the following steps to add the RAZ service to your cluster:

  1. On the Cloudera Manager home page, go to the Status tab.
  2. Click the Actions icon beside the cluster name, and select the Add a Service action.

    A list of service types appears. You can select only one type of service from the list at a time.

  3. Select the Ranger RAZ service, and click Continue.
  4. On the Select Dependencies page, select a combination that includes at least the Ranger and ZooKeeper services.
  5. Assign a host for the Ranger RAZ Server role on the Assign Roles page.
  6. Restart only the RAZ service from Ranger RAZ > Actions > Restart.
  7. Create the RAZ plugin by running the Create Ranger RAZ Plugin Audit Directory command from Cloudera Manager > Ranger RAZ > Actions.
To ensure optimal performance, you must set the Java heap size to a minimum of 2GB for the Ranger RAZ service from Cloudera Manager. Update the Ranger Raz Max Heapsize property to 2GB from Ranger RAZ > Configuration.
