Thanks for putting this together, David! Let's move into the coming Bigtop
book (at some point) ;)
Here's a suggestion:
- the slides imply the use of the Bigtop master branch
- which makes the sequence of the steps in slide #3 suboptimal. What I'd
recommend to be done - and it will be less error-prone - is:
1) install puppet
2) clone bigtop and cd into the workspace
3) run
puppet apply --modulepath=. -e "include bigtop_toolchain::packages"
Slide #4
step 1)
IIRC '#' in the csv file will break Puppet execution
jdk_package_name,<your java version> - it should be java package name,
rather than just a version
step 2) you don't need to make /data be owned by hdfs - only directoies
/data/{1..4}
step 3) needs to mention that deployment step has to be run on _each_ node.
As a practical note, I'd recommend to stay away from using 'jps' command as
it's known to have funny issues. 'ps aux | grep java' is usually a bulletproof
way to go.
Hope it helps,
cos
