With the release of version 0.9.7.0, Hypertable can now run on most modern distributions of Hadoop. The Hypertable packages currently have built-in support for the Cloudera distribtion (we will be adding support for the Hortonworks distribution soon). CDH3 is the distribution that is configured by default. To switch to the CDH4 distribution, edit the default_distro variable at the top of your Capfile:
set :default_distro, "cdh4" and then run the following command: cap set_distro *Other (non-Cloudera) distributions* If you would like to run Hypertable on top of a distribution other than Cloudera, you'll need to deposit the distribution jar files in the lib/java directory (e.g. /opt/hypertable/current/lib/java). You'll also need to copy the corresponding Hypertable jar files into that directory as well. For Hadoop 1 distributions, use the hypertable jar files located in lib/java/cd3 directory (e.g. /opt/hypertable/current/lib/java/cdh3), for Hadoop 2 distributions, use the Hypertable jar files located in the lib/java/cd4 directory (e.g. /opt/hypertable/current/lib/java/cdh4). Be sure to first remove any existing hadoop jar files, for example: cap shell cap> rm -f /opt/hypertable/current/lib/java/hadoop-* Then deposit the Hadoop jar files for your distribution under /opt/hypertab/current/lib/java and then distribute them to all machines in the cluster with the following command: cap dist The above instructions have been added to the Hypertable documentation under Hadoop Installation<http://hypertable.com/documentation/installation/quick_start_cluster_installation/> . -- Doug Judd CEO, Hypertable Inc. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hypertable Development" group.
