HPE Basic Implementation Service for Hadoop
HPE Technology Consulting
The HPE Basic Implementation Service for Hadoop configures the hardware, and implements and configures the software platform, for your
Apache Hadoop cluster based on published HPE Reference Architectures for Hadoop.
Service overview
This service will configure the eligible hardware, and implement and configure the specified software, for a single rack of Hadoop nodes
based on the following HPE Reference Architectures for Hadoop:
4AA5-9017ENW - HPE Verified Reference Architecture for Hortonworks for DL380 Gen9, configuring Hadoop, YARN, Pig, Hive, Spark,
•
Hue, Sqoop, Ambari, Zookeeper and Oozie only
4AA5-9086ENW - HPE Verified Reference Architecture Cloudera Enterprise 5 on ProLiant DL380 Gen9 Servers with RHEL, configuring
•
Hadoop, YARN, Pig, Impala, Hue, Sqoop, Cloudera Manager, Zookeeper and Oozie only
The service is designed to provide a fast, high-quality software implementation and configuration of your Apache Hadoop cluster based on
the hardware and software platforms identified above along with a demonstration of the basic working cluster capabilities to help accelerate
knowledge transfer to your staff. This service is delivered in four phases and includes priced options for onsite or remote delivery as
described in the “Ordering information” section below. The service phases are:
Phase 1 - Preparation – you will be provided with an HPE configuration questionnaire. Following timely completion, an HPE consultant will
work remotely with you to verify that any information provided in response to that questionnaire is complete and also that the required
hardware and software will be readied. All hardware must be racked, cabled to power and network, powered on, and all software licenses
must be available. Additionally the HPE consultant will explain the implementation and configuration process, and answer any questions
relating to the service.
Phase 2 - Documentation – an HPE consultant will use the responses to the HPE configuration questionnaire and prepare the cluster
configuration document that will document the configuration that is built during the deployment phase.
Phase 3 - Deployment – HPE consultants will configure the servers, the Top-of-Rack network switches, and then implement and configure
the software platform as documented in the cluster configuration document on your Hadoop cluster based on the configuration plan
contained in the configuration document. An example outline of the deployment configuration plan is illustrated in Table 1.
Phase 4 - Knowledge transfer – this final phase is intended to familiarize cluster operations staff with the basic operation of the cluster; it
is not intended to replace normal training. In this phase an HPE engineer will run through a knowledge transfer session with your chosen
representatives and explain basic cluster management steps, demonstrating these steps on your cluster as outlined in Table 1, Knowledge
transfer.
The delivery options and duration of the phases provided by this service are:
Phase 1 - Preparation and Phase 2 - Documentation, via remote delivery, up to 12 hours
Phase 3 - Deployment, via the selected delivery option(*), up to 24 hours. Top-of-Rack network switches may require an onsite visit for the
network switch configuration.

Phase 1 - Preparation
Phase 2 - Documentation
In this phase the Customer will be provided with an HPE configuration questionnaire. Following timely completion by the
Customer, an HPE consultant will work remotely with the Customer to verify that any information provided in response to that
questionnaire is complete. Additionally, the HPE consultant will explain the implementation and configuration process, answer
any questions relating to the subsequent three phases of the service. and review customer responsibilities, including but not
limited to, ensuring that the required hardware and software meets all criteria prior to service delivery.
In this phase an HPE consultant will produce a configuration document that describes the Customer’s target platform
configuration.
The configuration document will use information as supplied by the Customer in answers to the HPE questionnaire and
includes the following information, as applicable:
• Configuration plan
• Hadoop storage configuration
• HPE Reference Architecture networking requirements:
– IP subnets
– Host names
– Virtual LAN (VLAN) connectivity
– Management network

– Network Time Protocol (NTP)
– Data center uplinks
– Firewalls
• Server and compute requirements:
– Compute OS and firmware
– Number and type of Hadoop servers
Phase 3 - Deployment
Phase 4 - Knowledge transfer
In this phase an HPE consultant will conduct the software implementation and configuration of HPE’s Reference Architecture
for Hadoop based upon the documented configuration plan that can include the following:
• Top-of-Rack network switch configuration and checks
• Implementation and configuration of Linux® on the Management nodes
• Validate data center connectivity
• Implementation and configuration of HPE’s Insight Cluster Management Utility
• Optimize the configuration of the Hadoop nodes BIOS and SmartArray
