Re: installation prerequisites

2016-04-04 Thread Sharu Gupta
Hello,

I want to thank everybody for their responses and I am so sorry for such a
delayed response.

I will explain what I am trying to do. I am trying to install trafodion
1.3.0 binaries to experiment with trafodion as an end-user. I am referring
to the steps in the provisioning guide for this purpose.

Reading through the prerequisites and steps in the provisioning guide, I
want to install the binaries on a virtual machine (single-node
environment). I need CDH 5.3 hadoop distribution on the VM to get going.
The problem I have is that when I go to
http://www.cloudera.com/downloads/quickstart_vms/5-5.html, I only see two
options: download the VM installed with CDH 5.5 or CDH 5.4. (no option of
getting VM with CDH 5.3 or under)

Christophe, you sent me a the link to get CDH 5.3. Would it be OK if I
install CDH 5.3 hadoop distribution on my local machine and get started. I
mean install hadoop CDH 5.3  and trafodion on my machine instead of VM.

I am new to the hadoop world. Sorry if my questions are trivial. Thank you
for your time.

Sharu

Thank you for your reply.
I went to http://trafodion.apache.org/download.html to get started. There
is no mention the version number on the link.

Can the daily build be cloned from git?

installation prerequisites

2016-04-01 Thread Sharu Gupta
Hello,

I am a new user on your mailing list. I was reading the instructions to
download and install Trafodion.

The instructions say that either Cloudera CDH 5.3 or CDH 5.2 are required.
However, I can only find CDH versions 5.4 or higher on
http://www.cloudera.com/downloads/quickstart_vms/5-5.html

Will it be OK to use hadoop distribution by CDH 5.4 or higher?

Thank you,
Sharu
