:experimental:
You can deploy Kudu on a cluster using packages or you can build Kudu
from source. To run Kudu without installing anything, use the link:quickstart.html#quickstart_vm[Kudu Quickstart VM].
NOTE: Cloudera Manager users can install and manage Kudu with
link:http://www.cloudera.com/content/www/en-us/products/cloudera-manager.html[Cloudera Manager],
instead of following these instructions. For more information, see Cloudera's
link:http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/kudu/latest/topics/kudu_installation.html[Kudu documentation].
.Upgrading Kudu
To upgrade Kudu from a previous version, see <<upgrade>>.
== Prerequisites and Requirements
.Hardware
- One or more hosts to run Kudu masters. It is recommended to have either one master (no fault
tolerance), or three masters (can tolerate one failure). The number of masters must be odd.
- One or more hosts to run Kudu tablet servers. When using replication, a minimum of three tablet
servers is necessary.
WARNING: A deployment with an even number of masters provides the same level of fault tolerance as a
deployment with one fewer master. For example, both four-master and three-master deployments can
only tolerate a single failure; two-master deployments cannot tolerate any failures.
.Operating System Requirements
Linux::
- RHEL 6, RHEL 7, CentOS 6, CentOS 7, Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty), Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial), Debian 8 (Jessie), or SLES 12.
- A kernel and filesystem that support _hole punching_. Hole punching is the use of the
`fallocate(2)` system call with the `FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE` option set. See
link:troubleshooting.html#req_hole_punching[troubleshooting hole punching] for more
information.
- ntp.
- xfs or ext4 formatted drives.
macOS::
- OS X 10.10 Yosemite, OS X 10.11 El Capitan, macOS Sierra, or macOS High Sierra.
- Prebuilt macOS packages are not provided.
Windows::
- Microsoft Windows is unsupported.
.Storage
- If solid state storage is available, storing Kudu WALs on such high-performance
media may significantly improve latency when Kudu is configured for its highest
durability levels.
.Java
- JDK 7 or JDK 8 is required to build Kudu, but a JRE is not required at runtime
except for tests.
[[install_packages]]
== Install Using Packages
You can install Kudu using packages managed by the operating system.

|===
=== Install on RHEL or CentOS Hosts
. Download and configure the Kudu repositories for your operating system, or manually
download individual RPMs, using the appropriate link from <<kudu_package_locations>>.
. If using a Yum repository, use the following commands to install Kudu packages on
each host, after saving the `cloudera-kudu.repo` file to `/etc/yum.repos.d/`.
+
----
sudo yum install kudu # Base Kudu files
sudo yum install kudu-master # Kudu master init.d service script and default configuration
sudo yum install kudu-tserver # Kudu tablet server init.d service script and default configuration
sudo yum install kudu-client0 # Kudu C++ client shared library
sudo yum install kudu-client-devel # Kudu C++ client SDK
----
. To manually install the Kudu RPMs, first download them, then use the command
`sudo rpm -ivh <RPM to install>` to install them.
. Note: the `kudu-master` and `kudu-tserver` packages are only necessary on hosts
where there is a master or tserver respectively (and completely unnecessary if
using Cloudera Manager). Each provides configuration files and an init.d script to
manage the corresponding Kudu process. Once installed, the Kudu process is started
and stopped automatically when the host starts up and shuts down.
=== Install on SLES Hosts
. Download and configure the Kudu repositories for your operating system, or manually
download individual RPMs, using the appropriate link from <<kudu_package_locations>>.
. If using a Zypper repository, use the following commands to install Kudu packages on
each host, after saving the `cloudera-kudu.repo` file to `/etc/zypp/repos.d`.
+
----
sudo zypper install kudu # Base Kudu files
sudo zypper install kudu-master # Kudu master init.d service script and default configuration
sudo zypper install kudu-tserver # Kudu tablet server init.d service script and default configuration
sudo zypper install kudu-client0 # Kudu C++ client shared library
sudo zypper install kudu-client-devel # Kudu C++ client SDK
----
. To manually install the Kudu RPMs, first download them, then use the command
`sudo rpm -ivh <RPM to install>` to install them.
. Note: the `kudu-master` and `kudu-tserver` packages are only necessary on hosts
where there is a master or tserver respectively (and completely unnecessary if
using Cloudera Manager). Each provides configuration files and an init.d script to
manage the corresponding Kudu process. Once installed, the Kudu process is started
and stopped automatically when the host starts up and shuts down.
=== Install on Ubuntu or Debian Hosts
. If using an Ubuntu or Debian repository, use the following commands to install Kudu
packages on each host after saving the `cloudera.list` file to `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/`.
+
----
sudo apt-get install kudu # Base Kudu files
sudo apt-get install kudu-master # Service scripts for managing kudu-master
sudo apt-get install kudu-tserver # Service scripts for managing kudu-tserver
sudo apt-get install libkuduclient0 # Kudu C++ client shared library
sudo apt-get install libkuduclient-dev # Kudu C++ client SDK
----
. To manually install the Kudu RPMs, first download them, then use the command
`sudo rpm -ivh <RPM to install>` to install them.
. Note: the `kudu-master` and `kudu-tserver` packages are only necessary on hosts
where there is a master or tserver respectively (and completely unnecessary if
using Cloudera Manager). Each provides configuration files and an init.d script to
manage the corresponding Kudu process. Once installed, the Kudu process is started
and stopped automatically when the host starts up and shuts down.
=== Verify the Installation
// tag::verify_install[]
. Verify that services are running using one of the following methods:
- Examine the output of the `ps` command on servers to verify one or both of `kudu-master`
or `kudu-tserver` processes is running.
- Access the Master or Tablet Server web UI by opening `\http://<_host_name_>:8051/`
for masters
or `\http://<_host_name_>:8050/` for tablet servers.
. If Kudu isn't running, have a look at the log files in '/var/log/kudu', and if there's a file
ending with '.FATAL' then it means Kudu wasn't able to start.
- If the error is 'Error during hole punch test', it might be a problem
link:troubleshooting.html#req_hole_punching[with your OS].
- If the error is 'Couldn't get the current time', it's a
link:troubleshooting.html#ntp[problem with ntp].
- If it's something else that doesn't seem obvious or if you've tried the above solutions without
luck, you can ask for help on the
link:http://kudu.apache.org/community.html[user mailing list].
// end::verify_install[]
[[required_config_without_cm]]
=== Required Configuration
Additional configuration steps are required on each host before you can start Kudu services.
. The packages create a `kudu-conf` entry in the operating system's alternatives database,
and they ship the built-in `conf.dist` alternative. To adjust your configuration,
you can either edit the files in `/etc/kudu/conf/` directly, or create a new alternative
using the operating system utilities, make sure it is the link pointed to by `/etc/kudu/conf/`,
and create custom configuration files there. Some parts of the configuration are configured
in `/etc/default/kudu-master` and `/etc/default/kudu-tserver` files as well. You
should include or duplicate these configuration options if you create custom configuration files.
+
Review the configuration, including the default WAL and data directory locations,
and adjust them according to your requirements.
// tag::start_stop[]
. Start Kudu services using the following commands:
+
[source,bash]
----
$ sudo service kudu-master start
$ sudo service kudu-tserver start
----
. To stop Kudu services, use the following commands:
+
[source,bash]
----
$ sudo service kudu-master stop
$ sudo service kudu-tserver stop
----
// end::start_stop[]
. Configure the Kudu services to start automatically when the server starts, by adding
them to the default runlevel.
+
[source,bash]
----
$ sudo chkconfig kudu-master on # RHEL / CentOS / SLES
$ sudo chkconfig kudu-tserver on # RHEL / CentOS / SLES
$ sudo update-rc.d kudu-master defaults # Debian / Ubuntu
$ sudo update-rc.d kudu-tserver defaults # Debian / Ubuntu
----
. For additional configuration of Kudu services, see link:configuration.html[Configuring
Kudu].
[[build_from_source]]
== Build From Source
If installing Kudu using parcels or packages does not provide the flexibility you
need, you can build Kudu from source. You can build from source on any supported operating system.
[WARNING]
.Known Build Issues
====
* It is not possible to build Kudu on Microsoft Windows.
* A C++11 capable compiler (GCC 4.8+) is required.

== Installing the C++ Client Libraries
If you need access to the Kudu client libraries for development,
install the `kudu-client` and `kudu-client-devel` package for your platform.
See <<install_packages>>.
WARNING: Only build against the client libraries and headers (`kudu_client.so` and `client.h`).
Other libraries and headers are internal to Kudu and have no stability guarantees.
[[build_java_client]]
== Build the Java Client
.Requirements
- JDK 7 or JDK 8
- Apache Maven 3.x
WARNING: Support for Java 7 is deprecated as of Kudu 1.5.0 and may be removed in
the next major release.
To build the Java client, clone the Kudu Git
repository, change to the `java` directory, and issue the following command:
[source,bash]
----
$ mvn install -DskipTests

== View API Documentation
// tag::view_api[]
.C++ API Documentation
You can view the link:../cpp-client-api/index.html[C++ client API
documentation] online. Alternatively, after
link:installation.html#build_from_source[building Kudu from source], you can
additionally build the `doxygen` target (e.g., run `make doxygen` if using
make) and use the locally generated API documentation by opening
`docs/doxygen/client_api/html/index.html` file in your favorite Web browser.
NOTE: In order to build the `doxygen` target, it's necessary to have
doxygen with Dot (graphviz) support installed at your build machine. If
you installed doxygen after building Kudu from source, you will need to run
`cmake` again to pick up the doxygen location and generate appropriate
targets.
