Install Cloudera Manager Server

1. Download the Cloudera Manager Installer

wget https://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/installer/latest/cloudera-manager-installer.bin

2. Change the installer’s permission, so I can run it from console

chmod u+x cloudera-manager-installer.bin

3. Run the installer from console

sudo ./cloudera-manager-installer.bin

4. Accept all license agreement during installation. The installer will ensure java JDK is installed.

This process might take a while.

5. After Cloudera Manager Server is installed, you can use browser to login to Cloudera Manager

Server – “http://localhost:7180”. UN is “admin” and password is also “admin”. So from now on,

you can use Cloudera Manager to add hosts, install Hadoop and other software etc.

6. Before I can add host, I choose to use root to login host. So I need to enable “root” user account

first.

7. In Cloudera Manager, click “All Hosts” under “Hosts”.

8. Then click on “Add New Hosts to Cluster”. Then click on “Continue”

9. Specify “localhost” as host. Click “Search” and you will get:

10. Click “Continue”. Now we are in “Cluster Installation” user interface.

11. Click “Continue” and accept “JDK” license.

12. I choose not to “Enable Single User Mode”. Click “Continue”.

13. Choose “root” in “Cluster Installation”.

14. Now we enter “Cluster Installation”. It might take a while.
