Creating a Shared Data Context

Create a Shared Data Context to all the Compute cluster to access data, metadata, and security services from the Base cluster. This shared context required before creating Compute clusters.

  • You have reviewed Cloudera Flow Management installation workflow and have decided to install NiFi on a Compute cluster.
  • You have installed NiFi Registry on your Base cluster.
  • Your Base cluster has data, metadata, and security services to share.
  1. From Cloudera Manager Home, click on your Base cluster name to go the Detail page.
  2. In the Data Contexts section, click Create.
  3. In the Create Data Context dialog, provide a Data Context Name, specify your Base cluster, and click Create.

When you have finished creating a Shared Data Context, proceed to adding NiFi and NiFi Registry groups to Ranger.
