Installation Path A - Automated Installation by Cloudera Manager

• Cloudera Express, which does not require a license, but provides a limited set of features.
• Cloudera Enterprise Data Hub Edition Trial, which does not require a license, but expires after 60 days and cannot be renewed.
• Cloudera Enterprise with one of the following license types:
  • Basic Edition
  • Flex Edition
  • Data Hub Edition

1. Click Upload License.
2. Click the document icon to the left of the Select a License File text field.
3. Go to the location of your license file, click the file, and click Open.
4. Click Upload.

You can specify multiple addresses and address ranges by separating them by commas, semicolons, tabs, or blank spaces, or by placing them on separate lines. Use this technique to make more specific searches instead of searching overly wide ranges. The scan results will include all addresses scanned, but only scans that reach hosts running SSH will be selected for inclusion in your cluster by default. If you don't know the IP addresses of all of the hosts, you can enter an address range that spans over unused addresses and then deselect the hosts that do not exist (and are not discovered) later in this procedure. However, keep in mind that wider ranges will require more time to scan.

• Use Parcels
  1. Choose the parcels to install. The choices you see depend on the repositories you have chosen – a repository may contain multiple parcels. Only the parcels for the latest supported service versions are configured by default.
     You can add additional parcels for previous versions by specifying custom repositories. For example, you can find the locations of the previous CDH 4 parcels at https://archive.cloudera.com/cdh4/parcels/. Or, if you are installing CDH 4.3 and want to use policy-file authorization, you can add the Sentry parcel using this mechanism.

     1. To specify the parcel directory, local parcel repository, add a parcel repository, or specify the properties of a proxy server through which parcels are downloaded, click the More Options button and do one or more of the following:
        • Parcel Directory and Local Parcel Repository Path - Specify the location of parcels on cluster hosts and the Cloudera Manager Server host.
        • Parcel Repository - In the Remote Parcel Repository URLs field, click the button and enter the URL of the repository. The URL you specify is added to the list of repositories listed in the Configuring Cloudera Manager Server Parcel Settings page and a parcel is added to the list of parcels on the Select Repository page. If you have multiple repositories configured, you will see all the unique parcels contained in all your repositories.
        • Proxy Server - Specify the properties of a proxy server.
     2. Click OK. Parcels available from the configured remote parcel repository URLs are displayed in the parcels list. If you specify a URL for a parcel version too new to be supported by the Cloudera Manager version, the parcel is not displayed in the parcel list.
• Use Packages
  1. Select the major release of CDH to install.
  2. Select the specific release of CDH to install. You can choose either the latest version, a specific version, or use a custom repository. If you specify a custom repository for a CDH version too new to be supported by the Cloudera Manager version, Cloudera Manager will install the packages but you will not be able to create services using those packages and will have to manually uninstall those packages and manually reinstall packages for a supported CDH version.
  3. Select the specific releases of other services to install. You can choose either the latest version or use a custom repository. Choose None if you do not want to install that service.

• Select root or enter the user name for an account that has password-less sudo permission.
• Select an authentication method:
  • If you choose password authentication, enter and confirm the password.
  • If you choose public-key authentication, provide a passphrase and path to the required key files.
• You can specify an alternate SSH port. The default value is 22.
• You can specify the maximum number of host installations to run at once. The default value is 10.

• Parcels - installs the Oracle JDK and the Cloudera Manager Agent packages and starts the Agent. Click Continue. During parcel installation, progress is indicated for the phases of the parcel installation process in separate progress bars. If you are installing multiple parcels, you see progress bars for each parcel. When the Continue button at the bottom of the screen turns blue, the installation process is completed.
• Packages - configures package repositories, installs the Oracle JDK, CDH and managed service and the Cloudera Manager Agent packages, and starts the Agent. When the Continue button at the bottom of the screen turns blue, the installation process is completed. If the installation has completed successfully on some hosts but failed on others, you can click Continue if you want to skip installation on the failed hosts and continue to the next screen to start configuring services on the successful hosts.

• Click the radio button next to the combination of services to install:

  CDH 4	CDH 5
  Core Hadoop - HDFS, MapReduce, ZooKeeper, Oozie, Hive, and Hue Core with HBase Core with Impala All Services - HDFS, MapReduce, ZooKeeper, HBase, Impala, Oozie, Hive, Hue, and Sqoop Custom Services - Any combination of services.	Core Hadoop - HDFS, YARN (includes MapReduce 2), ZooKeeper, Oozie, Hive, and Hue Core with HBase Core with Impala Core with Search Core with Spark All Services - HDFS, YARN (includes MapReduce 2), ZooKeeper, Oozie, Hive, Hue, HBase, Impala, Solr, Spark, and Key-Value Store Indexer Custom Services - Any combination of services.

  As you select services, keep the following in mind:
  • Some services depend on other services; for example, HBase requires HDFS and ZooKeeper. Cloudera Manager tracks dependencies and installs the correct combination of services.
  • In a Cloudera Manager deployment of a CDH 4 cluster, the MapReduce service is the default MapReduce computation framework. Choose Custom Services to install YARN, or use the Add Service functionality to add YARN after installation completes.
  • In a Cloudera Manager deployment of a CDH 5 cluster, the YARN service is the default MapReduce computation framework. Choose Custom Services to install MapReduce, or use the Add Service functionality to add MapReduce after installation completes.
  • The Flume service can be added only after your cluster has been set up.
• If you have chosen Data Hub Edition Trial or Cloudera Enterprise, optionally select the Include Cloudera Navigator checkbox to enable Cloudera Navigator. See the Cloudera Navigator Documentation.

Click a field below a role to display a dialog containing a list of hosts. If you click a field containing multiple hosts, you can also select All Hosts to assign the role to all hosts, or Custom to display the pageable hosts dialog.

Click the View By Host button for an overview of the role assignment by hostname ranges.

1. Choose the database type:
   • Keep the default setting of Use Embedded Database to have Cloudera Manager create and configure required databases. Record the auto-generated passwords.
     
     
     
     
   • Select Use Custom Databases to specify external databases.
     1. Enter the database host, database type, database name, username, and password for the database that you created when you set up the database.
   • If you are adding the Oozie service, you can change your Oozie configuration to control when data is purged in order to improve performance, cut down on database disk usage, improve upgrade performance, or to keep the history for a longer period of time. See Configuring Oozie Data Purge Settings Using Cloudera Manager.
2. Click Test Connection to confirm that Cloudera Manager can communicate with the database using the information you have supplied. If the test succeeds in all cases, click Continue; otherwise, check and correct the information you have provided for the database and then try the test again. (For some servers, if you are using the embedded database, you will see a message saying the database will be created at a later step in the installation process.) The Review Changes screen displays.
