Preparing to create Iceberg replication policies

Before you create an Iceberg replication policy, you must complete the prerequisites.

Iceberg replication policies can replicate only Iceberg V2 tables, created using Spark (read-only with Impala).
  • Ensure that the source cluster and target cluster versions are CDP Private Cloud Base 7.1.9 or higher using Cloudera Manager version 7.11.3 or higher versions.
  • Activate the Iceberg Replication parcel. The parcel might be included in your Cloudera Runtime distribution or in a separate distribution. For more information, contact your Cloudera account team.
  • Add the Iceberg Replication service on both the clusters?
    To add a service, go to the Cloudera Manager > Clusters > [***CLUSTER NAME***] page and click Actions > Add Service. For more information see, Adding a Service.
  • Ensure that you have the Atlas user credentials in addition to the Replication Administrator or Full Administrator roles to replicate Atlas metadata. The atlas user must also have relevant read and write permissions to the staging locations.
