Hi guys, me again. I haven't set up Puppet before, can you just point me in the right direction? I know this is not a Puppet mailing list, but I bet you have some tips for me :-)
So what do I need to do? Install Puppet on every node? What does it mean that the mode of Puppet is "*masterless"* - do I just have to do a basic installation of Puppet and not care much about setting it up, and then deploy bigtop on every node separately? And when setting the Hadoop head node - does that mean that I need to deploy Bigtop on this node first, and Bigtop will know this is the master node by the url or IP I provide to it? And then deploy Bigtop via Puppet on all the other nodes and they will connect to the head node (which is the NameNode, I suppose?). I can do this via trial and error, but if you guys can help me reduce the "error" part, that will be great :) Sorry for such beginner questions, I haven't used Puppet before ... The reason I'm asking is, I got access to a "physical" (actually virtual, but it's the same) environment for a limited amount of time (two weeks), and I need to start testing on it asap - and since my day job takes a lot of my time, if I wanted to do this without help it could take me two weeks just to set up the environment - but I need to install it, which is not the central part of my project, and then run some ML algorithms on a text corpus, which will be the main part of the project ... --David On Thu, Mar 10, 2016 at 11:28 AM, David Starina <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the info! > > --David > > On Tue, Mar 8, 2016 at 7:15 PM, Jay Vyas <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> I think there is enough info on youtube that you can cobble together a >> syllabus if you need structured learning. >> >> See cos/Romans Bigtop talks which are on YouTube and then my Bigtop >> internals hackathon video.
