You can allocate 4GB

kick off this command in the terminal . that should bring you a cloudera manager express edition 

sudo /home/cloudera/cloudera-manager --force --express

 

Once everything is started in the terminal you wll see a Cloudera manager url along with the credentials .

Let me know if this is suffice

The launch Cloudera Express icon is what you are looking for. I suggest looking over our community article on setting up the QuickStart VM to ensure you have the proper resources allocated to the VM.

When I opened lauch express, terminal appeared with warning: it is highly recommended that you run cloudera express in a vm with at least 8GB of RAM.

You can override these checks by passing in the --force option,

 

e.g., sudo /homecloudera/cloudera-manager --force

 

press [ENTER] to exit...

P.S. I have allocated 2 procrssors and ram about 3.5 GB. Do you want me to change VM settings and give 8GB of ram that all I have to Cloudera quickstart VM?
