Prerequisites:

  • CentOS 6
  • Add the epel repository and install tmux, vim & htop. Installing these utilities is not strictly necessary, but I install these by default for potential troubleshooting & editing of files locally):

    Code Block
    # yum install epel-release -y

...

  • 
    # yum update -y

...

  • 
    # yum install vim tmux htop -y
  • Set up passwordless SSH between our nodes:
  • If passwordless ssh has not yet been set up within the cluster, then in main node generate key:

Code Block
# cat /dev/zero | ssh-keygen -q -N "" 2>/dev/null

...


# cd ~/.ssh

...


# cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys

 

  • If you're not installing on a single node, add this newly generated key to all the slave nodes:

    Code Block
    # ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 

...

  • <REPLACE_

...

  • WITH_

...

  • NODE_

...

  • IP>

    Side note: You might have to adapt your sshd_config file and add "PermitRootLogin yes" amongst other parameters if you want passwordless root access, but that's outside the scope of this document.

  • Increase limits for ElasticSearch and Storm on nodes where you will be installing them (if you don't know, increase it everywhere):
# echo -e "elasticsearch - memlock unlimited\nstorm - nproc 257597" >> /etc/security/limits.conf
