---------------------------------

             Summary: Docs about installing Kudu binaries from source are misleading
                 Key: KUDU-1375
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1375
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Casey Ching
            Assignee: Misty Stanley-Jones


Step #7 at http://getkudu.io/docs/installation.html#_build_from_source says

{quote}
Optional: Install Kudu binaries, libraries, and headers. If you do not specify an installation directory through the DESTDIR environment variable, /usr/local/ is the default.

sudo make DESTDIR=/opt/kudu install
{quote} 

but if you run that command you only get the client, there is nothing to actually run the Kudu services. 

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1344

will help. Until then it would be great to document what needs to be done to get the server binaries. Or at least clarify that the instructions are only about the client.
