5.1 Server BIOS Settings

This section describes the system BIOS configuration required.


Hyper-threading

Disable hyper-threading in the master servers, slave servers, and development servers.

Point

  • There is no guarantee that hyper-threading will improve performance. For this reason, this product optimizes parameters for Hadoop under the assumption that hyper-threading is disabled.
    Refer to "Appendix C Hadoop Configuration Parameters" for information on Hadoop parameters.

  • Configure the system BIOS of the host machine when installing on a virtual environment.


Boot sequence

Set the boot sequence for the slave server as follows:

  1. Boot from the network interface used in the admin LAN (the first network interface)

  2. Boot from DVD-ROM or CD-ROM (if a DVD-ROM or CD-ROM is connected)

  3. Boot from storage

Note

  • Do not change the boot sequence even If operation is started from the managed Server and then booted from the disk.

  • If "UEFI" and "Legacy" are displayed when setting the boot from the network interface, select "Legacy".

Point

  • Settings are necessary to install other slave servers by cloning.

  • The boot sequence setting is not required when installing the slave server on a virtual environment.
