Hi Tom. You can easily spin up a cluster to test out the puppet recipes using vagrant.
git clone apache/bigtop cd bigtop-deploy/vm/vagrant-puppet-vm vagrant up If that works, then the base system is working for you. Then you can now try to customize: vagrant destroy vim vagrantconfig.yaml #add solr, for example. vagrant up This should get you started - and be very easy to experiment and iterate on. If the puppet / solr recipes work for you let us know, im not sure who is testing Solr versions in bigtop right now. For details on puppet recipes or bugs/questions on them just post here . Since we have so many components in bigtop which are puppetized, we havent been able to create a easy to read documentation on the whole puppet infrastructure as a whole (yet). Letting us know the results of testing Solr on bigtop will be alot of value to us, please let us know how it works for you !
