Hi all,

If I only have machines with Windows OS, and don't want to re-install Linux
OS, is there any means for me to use CDH3? Is there any windows package for
CDH3? Thanks in advance.

1. install virtualbox and a linux distro (Centos for the RPMs, Ubuntu
for the .debs), submit work remotely to it from your desktop.

2. skip the cloudera distribution and just install the apache version -v
0.21 if you want the leading edge features.

The RPM/deb distros are for use on production systems, which normally
means linux clusters, though some people use Solaris

Hello,

No "installer" packages exist for Windows AFAIK. Using Linux is the
"best" way right now. But anyway...

There are tarball packages from Cloudera's releases, just like there
are for Apache's releases. You can find CDH3 tarball source packages
here: http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh/3/

You can then set this up for Windows, with Cygwin installed, just like
you would for a Linux tar distribution. For installing without Cygwin
look at the JIRA issue HADOOP-6767, it has a patch that can help (am
not sure if this is included in CDH3).

P.s. For cloudera-specific help like these, mail to cloudera CDH-user

Hi Steve and Harsh,

Thanks a lot for your answers, I think I could get the key point now. And
thank you Harsh, for the CDH-user list information.
