This is a set of configurations for a single-node YARN cluster running in a VM, with HDFS and YARN brought up on the external network, not localhost. Assuming the physical host has a DNS entry for the machine, ubuntu, a Slider Client running on the host can upload Slider and deploy HBase onto the single-node cluster even though neither is installed on the VM.
