Installation of HDP : Step by Step

[#1]

Hello Team,

We are planning to install the HDP pseude mode ( Installtion on single machine)

We have 5.9 GB RAM

and 71GB of Free disk

Please help in installation of HDP ? Will appreciate if you have explain in broader way 🙂

what version should we use ..

Please look into this as w have to install the hdp by today 🙂

[#2]

The installation guide is pretty well documented and should be the first thing to read :

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.4.0/bk_installing_manually_book/content/ch_gett...

In terms of version, you should consider the last one released.

And if you only want to install HDP on a single machine, depending of what your are expecting, you should consider downloading the Sandbox :

Hope that helps.

@ASHISH Rastogi Honestly, you'll really struggle with that little RAM. Even the Hortonworks Sandbox suggests a bare mimimum of 8GB of RAM for a single node HDP environment, and while you might manage to trim that down a bit by reducing things to the bare minimum, it won't be a plesant experience.

I would recommend you perhaps investigate the HDP Sandbox instead and just run it on VMware or Virtualbox

If you're absolutely dead set on your origional approach, then I think you'll have to go without Ambari and instead do everything manually, the complete step by step for this is shown here:

But honestly that's quite a complex procedure, and accident prone. Best of luck!

@ASHISH Rastogi ok so 11GB of RAM with about 5.9GB of RAM free. That should be enough to deploy HDP, you just need to follow the instructions mentioned in the posts above!

@ASHISH Rastogi you would need to start the installation with the following steps:

http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.4.0/bk_installing_manually_book/content/ch_getti...

If you would like someone to walk you through it step by step above and beyond the documentation, I'd suggest that you look into Hortonworks support services and possibly even Hortonworks consulting services http://hortonworks.com/services/support/

Hi , drussell, Much appreciate for your help and letting me know to go for the above link according to my cluster memory . As you know I am creating a single node cluster . I am stuck with the Database Installation part ,I am planning for Hive . and also using the Centos 6.7 version .

Can you please suggest me from the link , which one database I go ahead for ?? Yoy can attach the screenshot also :)

[#9 · Accepted solution]

Hi @ASHISH Rastogi given you're using CentOS I'd suggest either MySQL or Postgres, both are supported options and available from the CentOS repos. Installation is via the normal yum methods.
