Cloudera Manager is a great tool to install a Big Data platform. I worked with this tool and let me share some findings. I realise that we have only a limited range of platforms that can be used to install the Cloudera Manager upon. I started with Ubuntu 16.04. In a first attempt, I used a newer version of Ubuntu but this was not supported.Therefore, I started with Ubuntu 16.04.
\nDuring an attempt of installation, I was given a warning that ubuntu uses 127.0.1.1 as the host address. During that attempt, it was stated that 127.0.1.1 will lead to issues. In subsequent step, I encountered the promised issues. Therefore, in another attempt, I modified the \/etc\/hosts file:<\/p>\n
\n127.0.0.1\tubuntu\n127.0.0.1\tlocalhost\n<\/pre>\nI also like to work with a fixed network address. This can be attained by including in \/etc\/network\/interfaces these lines:<\/p>\n
\nauto ens33\niface ens33 inet static\naddress 192.168.2.25\nnetmask 255.255.255.0\ngateway 192.168.2.254\ndns-nameservers 192.168.2.254\n<\/pre>\nIn these lines, we see ens33 as the network interface. Previous versions of Ubuntu use eth0. The network interface can be known from the “ifconfig” statement. <\/p>\n
During the installation, use is made of a ssh connection. This connection will be used with a sudo command. However, during installing I discovered that the sudo command must be given without a password. So we have a series of steps to take. SSH can be installed with:<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install openssh-server\n<\/pre>\nWe then set up the possibility to connect to ssh via root. This can be done in file \/etc\/ssh\/sshd_config. There we have a clause on PermitRootLogin. This must be set to “yes”:<\/p>\n
\nPermitRootLogin yes\n<\/pre>\nTo allow a sudo without providing a password, we have to adjust the \/etc\/sudoers file. There we have to provide the permission for the root usage via tom:<\/p>\n
\ntom ALL =(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL\n<\/pre>\nWe are then ready to go. The Cloudera Manager can be downloaded via:<\/p>\n
\nwget http:\/\/archive.cloudera.com\/cm5\/installer\/latest\/cloudera-manager-installer.bin\n\nadjust the privs via:\n\nchmod u+x cloudera-manager-installer.bin\n\nstart installing via:\n\nsudo .\/cloudera-manager-installer.bin\n<\/pre>\nI noted that the web browser didn’t run. I got it running via sudo firefox -Profilemanager. I also had the privs with ~\/.mozilla\/firefox\/ to make them readable. <\/p>\n
The installing was then straightforward. But above things have to settled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
