@Harisc4y

The prepare database script is delivered by the previous steps

Step 1: Configure a Repository

Configure the Repository by running or chose appropriate CDH repos

$ sudo wget https://archive.cloudera.com/cm6/6.3.0/redhat7/yum/cloudera-manager.repo -P /etc/yum.repos.d/

Import the repository signing GPG key for Redhat 7

sudo rpm --import https://archive.cloudera.com/cm6/6.3.0/redhat7/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-cloudera

Step 3: Install Cloudera Manager Server for RHEL7

or choose cm agent
$ sudo yum install cloudera-manager-daemons cloudera-manager-agent cloudera-manager-server

After the above steps, scm_prepare_database.sh should have been delivered you can check that

$ ll /opt/cloudera/cm/schema/

Hope that helps

@Harisc4y

Thats weird.can you share the following information

OS
Contents of your repo file
File System layout
Steps followed or documents
CM logs

Deployment shouldn't be that complicated I will setup a VM to try that out.

Bingooooooooo ! You are trying to install CDH on Operating System that is not certified no wonder all this headache I can now go to sleep.
We NEVER stress enough before embarking on deploying a software HDP or CDH you MUST read the vendor's release notes and most important the compatibility matrix. Not heeding to these pre-requisites always leads to a very bad first experience.

I downloaded and fired up your VM successfully, I then started form the basics Memory, CPU and networking then I saw a strange UI so checking the version confirmed my fears

Unsupported OS

Cloudera Compatability Matrix

Reference:

https://docs.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/6/release-notes/topics/rg_os_requirements.html#c63_supported_os

Currently, Centos/RHEL 7.6 is the latest compatible version so no need to proceed further with investigations

Happy hadooping
