Flume is included in the HDP repo, and usually installed on an Edge node. The Installation instructions can be found here: https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.0/bk_command-line-installation/content/instal...

The HDP Client tools including Sqoop and Flume would typically be installed on HDP Edge Nodes, and not usually in a HDF cluster.

Assuming the box meets the other prereqs (OS, etc) then the client tools can be installed on the same box, though it isn't typical.

You can find some information in the HDF docs, like this topic on using Sqoop.

Also, Flume is deprecated in HDP 2.6 and is being removed in HDP 3.0. See the Release Notes.

And here's another topic you might want to check out: HDP and Component Information.

Currently, you can only deploy HDP components, including Sqoop and Flume, on HDP.
