You should find as part of the src.rpm a spec file. The spec file will give you the option which have been used at compilation time.

Thanks Sean! So how are these 2 RPM packages generated? Were they created based on Storm source (to compile and build) or just create RPM with binary only?

Hi, I am installing HDP cluster v2.1.7, with Storm service. I found 2 RPM packages for Storm: · storm-0.9.1.2.1.7.0-784.el6.noarch.rpm · storm-0.9.1.2.1.7.0-784.el6.src.rpm I am wondering what storm-0.9.1.2.1.7.0-784.el6.src.rpm does. It seems like it does nothing during installation. Is this package really required? If so, when is it needed? Thanks, -Tao
