Configure MR1 using Bigtop

[Jagat Singh <ja...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Do we have support for MR1 using bigtop packaging ?

If yes
Can you please share instructions.

If No
Would it be good to include ?


Bonus question:

Why dont we support 32 bit systems :) although we can build ourselves.

Thanks in advance

Yes, MR1 isn't supported in Hadoop2. And Bigtop doesn't explicitly add new
features into existing projects: we are downstream integration point, not a
customization shop ;)

As Sean said - 0.3.0 is your best bet. 0.3.1 is under way and I hope to finish
it soon enough - feel free to jump on and help with the tickets: there are
perhaps 5 or so left to be addressed.

As for 32bits: I guess you are not supporting it because the use of 32bit
platform is next to non-existent. And of course you can build it yourself -
that's should be easy enough.

Cos

Hi Jagat,

The latest versions of Bigtop do not support MR1, but Bigtop 0.3 did. You
can checkout the source for that line to build it yourself or you can
download the archived source release and binary packages for the supported
OS's here:
http://archive.apache.org/dist/incubator/bigtop/bigtop-0.3.0-incubating/. I
know there was some work done with the aim of another release 0.3.x release
that included MR1, but I don't know the current status of that effort.

Bigtop generally releases the most recent versions of all components that
work well together in testing. I believe the intended course of action if a
user or a distribution based on Bigtop want a different set of components
to meet their needs, is to use the packaging code available for previous
versions and recombine it however they want. MapReduce is one of the more
complicated components, so you will probably find it easiest to use the 0.3
release and rebuild any other components that you want upgraded from there.
