Installing CFM parcel and CSD files
For installing Cloudera Flow Management (CFM), you need to add the CFM parcel to your cluster using Cloudera Manager to make NiFi and NiFi Registry available for installation.. You also need to upload the NiFi and NiFi Registry Custom Service Descriptor (CSD) files to the default CSD directory. Custom Service Descriptor (CSD) files contain configuration information needed to describe and manage a new service.
- You have installed a JDK. For more information, see Installing the JDK.
- You have installed and configured a database for use with NiFi Registry. For more information, see Installing and configuring a database for NiFi Registry.
- You have installed a CDP Private Cloud Base cluster. For more information, see Installing Cloudera Manager and a CDP Private Cloud Base cluster.
You have completed your CDP Private Cloud Base installation. You can now proceed with installing, securing, and configuring CFM.
You can install NiFi and NiFi Registry on the Base cluster, on a Compute cluster, or in a hybrid setup. To decide which option is best for you, see the CFM installation workflow.
