About the Cloudera Manager Installation Program

The Cloudera Manager installation program, which you will install on the host where you want to the Cloudera Manager Server to run, automatically:

  • Installs the package repositories for Cloudera Manager and the Oracle Java Development Kit (JDK)
  • Installs the Oracle JDK 1.6 if it is not already installed. Cloudera Manager also supports JDK 1.7 if it is already installed on the cluster hosts.
  • Installs the Cloudera Manager Server
  • Installs and configures an embedded PostgreSQL database for use by the Cloudera Manager server
