Using the Internet Repository

This section describes how to make packages available through the data-fabric Internet repository.

The MapR repository on the Internet provides all of the packages required to install a data-fabric cluster using native tools such as:

yum on RedHat, Oracle Linux, or CentOS
zypper on SUSE
apt-get on Ubuntu

Installing from the Internet repository is generally the easiest installation method, but requires the greatest amount of bandwidth. With this method, each node is connected to the Internet to download the required packages.

Set up repositories by completing the steps for your RedHat/Oracle Linux/CentOS, SUSE, or Ubuntu distribution.
