CDH 6 Supported OS

avatar
New Contributor

Hello, 

 

during our preperation of Cluster upgrade to CDH6 we noticed that the CDH6 Requirements site says CentOS 7.5 isn't supported for CDH6. 
But CDH 5.14 & 5.15 does support CentOS 7.5. Now were strugelling how to continue.

Ist this just a mistake in the documentation or is there a serious reason for the difference?

Hi,

 

This was missed in the docs, I opened an internal ticket to have it added to that page. We did the 6.0 certification on RHEL-compatible 7.5 OSes back in June.

 

Sorry about this!

There is the same question related to debian (see https://community.cloudera.com/t5/CDH-Manual-Installation/CDH-6-supported-OS/td-p/79686) do you have an answer to this one as well?

 

Best regards,

As of 6.0 we (Cloudera) no longer support/build on debian:

Sorry to be dissappoint.

We continue support for debian on 5.x though.

A quick clarification please . I have valid enterprise license so do you support CDH v6.x on CentOS 7.x or I should go with RHEL 7.x only ? I don't find much differences between these two but still want to make sure before we build new clusters. Just wanted to make sure which Operating system I should choose for Development, Stage and Production environments so that we get technical support from cloudera.

Hi @Anudas,

 

As far as our pubic doc says CDHv6.x does support CentOS 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, 7.3, 7.2. Please refer to below two urls:

 

6.1:

https://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/6/release-notes/topics/rg_os_requirements.html#c61...

6.0:

https://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/6/release-notes/topics/rg_os_requirements.html#c60...

 

Thanks and hope this helps,

Li
