Hi aBBy007, hmm I'm not sure what's happened to you but the method I described definitely works. I've done it tens of times as lots of customers don't allow direct Internet access to their clusters. Cheers, Lars

Not that I'm aware of. If you want to keep all your data you also need to move the data directories for some of the components to the new server.

That only installs CM and it's using the binary installer which uses embedded databases etc. which is not recommended for production. It also does not install CDH on cluster machines. CM itself is easy to install silently using DEBs or RPMs. To deploy CDH itself using CM would require you to use the CM REST API. I believe this is how Cloudera Director works as well because that basically does exactly what you're asking for. http://cloudera.github.io/cm_api/apidocs/v10/index.html I've seen people use the API in Ansible/Chef/Puppet scripts.

I don't think there's a way to disable the URL checking entirely. But you can just delete all but one Repository in the Parcel settings and enter a bogus URL (i.e. http://foo.bar) in the last field. You'll get warnings in the CM Server logs but those are quite common anyway because lots of customers don't have direct Internet access to their CM machines. And then you can just download the parcels and .sha1 files and move them into the parcel-repo directory. But you will have to rename the .sha1 file to .sha! This works but is not the recommended way of doing it. The recommended way is to set up a simple HTTP server and mirror the Parcels you want pointing the HTTP server at it and then enter that URL in CM.
