This section describes the items that need to be set before installing this product.
Category | Design item | Overview | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
Environment to install the server | Decide whether to install on a physical environment or a virtual environment. | - | |
Master server configuration | Decide whether to have replicated configuration for the master servers. | Specify in bdpp.conf used during installation. | |
Slave server configuration | Decide the number of slave servers to install initially. | You can build as many slave servers as you need after the first one during installation. | |
Number of machines in the virtual environment | Decide the number of machines to use as the virtual environment. (When installing on a virtual environment) | - | |
Designing system resources | Confirm the disk capacity, memory capacity, and tuning parameters required to install and operate this product. | Ensure that the servers meet the requirements before installing. | |
Capacity to be allocated to shared disk devices | Estimate the total size of the file data and determine the disk capacity to put in the storage device. | Specify this when constructing the DFS file system during installation. You need to complete storage system installation and configuration before installation. | |
Partitions used | Determine the partitions to be used in the DFS. | ||
Size of the file data area | Determine the maximum size, including partitions, that may be added in the future (optional). | ||
Data block size | Determine the data block size required for optimum input/output processing (optional). | ||
Replication of the public LAN | Determine whether to have LAN redundancy so that Hadoop parallel distribution processing is possible. | Specify in bdpp.conf used during installation. The servers and storage systems must be physically connected before installation. | |
Replication of CIP | Determine whether to have LAN redundancy so that alive monitoring of the master server's status is possible. | ||
Replication of iSCSI | Determine whether to have LAN redundancy for the connection of the storage systems. | ||
Deciding users of Hadoop | Decide the user for executing Hadoop jobs. | Specify in bdpp.conf used during installation. |
