Chapter 5. Using Cloudera Manager
With the knowledge acquired so far, you are now equipped with all the steps and operations
needed to set up a cluster via the command line. Up until now, we performed all the opera-
tions and configurations manually from the terminal. This is doable when the number of
nodes in a cluster is few. But as the number of nodes in a cluster grows, installing CDH and
its components manually on all the nodes would be a cumbersome task. Moreover, man-
aging those nodes would be difficult. To solve these problems, Cloudera built
Cloudera
Manager
. In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
• Understanding the architecture of Cloudera Manager
• Installing Cloudera Manager
• Navigating Cloudera Manager Web Console
• Configuring HDFS HA using Cloudera Manager
