<title>Procedure</title>
<ol>
<li>Ensure that the
<a href="rest_server_install.html#Requirements">required related installations</a>
are in place, and place required files into the
<a href="rest_server_install.html#Hadoop+Distributed+Cache">Hadoop distributed cache.</a></li>
<li>Download and unpack the HCatalog distribution.</li>
<li>Set the <code>TEMPLETON_HOME</code> environment variable to the base of the
HCatalog REST server installation. This will usually be same as
<code>HCATALOG_HOME</code>.
This is used to find the Templeton
configuration.</li>
<li>Set JAVA_HOME,HADOOP_PREFIX, and HIVE_HOME environment variables</li>
<li>Review the <a href="configuration.html">configuration</a>
and update or create <code>webhcat-site.xml</code> as required. Ensure that
site specific component installation locations are accurate, especially
the Hadoop configuration path. Configuration variables that use a filesystem
path try to have reasonable defaults, but it's always safe to specify a full
and complete path.</li>
<li>Verify that HCatalog is installed and that the <code>hcat</code>
executable is in the PATH.</li>
<li>Build HCatalog using the command <code>ant jar</code> from the
top level HCatalog directory.</li>
<li>Start the REST server with the command
<code>sbin/webhcat_server.sh start</code>.</li>
<li>Check that your local install works. Assuming that the server is running
on port 50111, the following command would give output similar to that shown.
<source>
% curl -i http://localhost:50111/templeton/v1/status
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Server: Jetty(7.6.0.v20120127)
{"status":"ok","version":"v1"}

<title>Server Commands</title>

<li><strong>Start the server:</strong> <code>sbin/webhcat_server.sh start</code></li>

<section>
<title>Requirements</title>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://ant.apache.org/">Ant</a>, version 1.8 or higher</li>
<li><a href="http://hadoop.apache.org/">Hadoop</a>, version 1.0.3 or higher</li>
<li><a href="http://zookeeper.apache.org/">ZooKeeper</a> is required if you are using
the ZooKeeper storage class. (Be sure to review
and update the ZooKeeper related <a href="configuration.html">Templeton
configuration</a>.)</li>
<li>
<a href="http://incubator.apache.org/hcatalog/">HCatalog</a>.
Version 0.5.0 or higher. The hcat executable must be both in the
PATH and properly configured in the <a
href="configuration.html">Templeton configuration</a>.
</li>
<li>
Permissions must be given to the user running the server.
(see below)
</li>
<li>
If running a secure cluster, Kerberos keys and principals must be
created. (see below)
</li>
<li><a href="rest_server_install.html#Hadoop+Distributed+Cache">Hadoop Distributed Cache</a>.
To use the <a href="http://hive.apache.org/">Hive</a>,
<a href="http://pig.apache.org/">Pig</a>, or
<a href="http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r1.0.0/streaming.html">hadoop/streaming</a>
resources, see instructions below for placing the required files in the
Hadoop Distributed Cache.</li>
</ul>
</section>
<section>
<title>Hadoop Distributed Cache</title>
<p>The server requires some files be accessible on the
<a href="http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/mapred_tutorial.html#DistributedCache">
Hadoop distributed cache</a>. For example, to avoid the installation of Pig and Hive
everywhere on the cluster, the server gathers a version of Pig or Hive from the
Hadoop distributed cache whenever those resources are invoked. After placing the
following components into HDFS please update the site configuration as required for
each.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Hive</strong>:
<a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/hive/">Download</a>
the hive tar.gz file and place it in HDFS.
<source>
hadoop fs -put /tmp/hive-0.10.0.tar.gz /apps/templeton/hive-0.10.0.tar.gz
</source>
</li>
<li><strong>Pig</strong>:
<a href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/pig">Download</a>
the Pig tar.gz file and place it into HDFS. For example:
<source>
hadoop fs -put /tmp/pig-0.10.1.tar.gz /apps/templeton/pig-0.10.1.tar.gz
</source>
</li>
<li><strong>Hadoop Streaming</strong>:
Place <code>hadoop-streaming.jar</code> into HDFS. For example, use the
following command, substituting your path to the jar for the one below.
<source>
hadoop fs -put $HADOOP_PREFIX/hadoop-0.20.205.0/contrib/streaming/hadoop-streaming-0.20.205.0.jar \
/apps/templeton/hadoop-streaming.jar
</source>
</li>
<li><strong>Override Jars</strong>:
Place override jars required (if any) into HDFS. <em>Note</em>: Hadoop versions
prior to 1.0.3 require a patch (HADOOP-7987) to properly run Templeton. This patch is
distributed with Templeton (located at
<code>templeton/src/hadoop_temp_fix/ugi.jar</code>)
and should be placed into HDFS, as reflected in the current default configuration.
<source>
hadoop fs -put ugi.jar /apps/templeton/ugi.jar
</source>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The location of these files in the cache, and the location
of the installations inside the archives, can be specified using the following
Templeton configuration variables. (See the
<a href="configuration.html">Configuration</a> documentation for more information
on changing Templeton configuration parameters.)</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Name</th><th>Default</th><th>Description</th></tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>templeton.pig.archive</strong></td>
<td><code>hdfs:///apps/templeton/pig-0.10.1.tar.gz</code></td>
<td>The path to the Pig archive.</td>

<section>
<title>Permissions</title>
<p>
Permission must given for the user running the templeton
executable to run jobs for other users. That is, the templeton
server will impersonate users on the Hadoop cluster.
</p>
<p>
Create (or assign) a Unix user who will run the Templeton server.
Call this USER. See the Secure Cluster section below for choosing
a user on a Kerberos cluster.
</p>
<p>
Modify the Hadoop core-site.xml file and set these properties:
</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Variable</th><th>Value</th></tr>
<tr>
<td>hadoop.proxyuser.USER.groups</td>
<td>
A comma separated list of the Unix groups whose users will be
impersonated.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>hadoop.proxyuser.USER.hosts</td>
<td>
A comma separated list of the hosts that will run the hcat and
JobTracker servers.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</section>
<section>
<title>Secure Cluster</title>
<p>
To run Templeton on a secure cluster follow the Permissions
instructions above but create a Kerberos principal for the
Templeton server with the name <code>USER/host@realm</code>
</p>
<p>
Also, set the templeton configuration variables
<code>templeton.kerberos.principal</code> and
<code>templeton.kerberos.keytab</code>
</p>
