For now, see the 0.7.0 instructions (How to install Bigtop 0.7.0 hadoop on CentOS with puppet)

In general, each bigtop distribution requires roughly the same setup...

  • Install puppet 3.x on each node in your cluster
  • Clone bigtop into each node.
  • Update your puppet hiera files (in /etc/...) to point to your setup yum repo. 
  • For each node, run the puppet apply command (and, yes (smile) ... the head node itself will know, based on the value of the hadoop_head_node uri, what special configurations need to be done).
  • No labels
