In this article, I’m going to discuss what you need to do to prepare your local Window machine (I’m using a VMWARE clone running Windows 8.1 Pro x64 with 8 GB of Ram)
First things first, let’s download our shopping list:
- Latest Version of Vagrant (1.6.3): http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html
- Latest Version of Oracle VirtualBox (4.3.12): https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
- Latest Version of Putty & PuttyGen: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
- Cascading Cluster Setup files: https://github.com/Cascading/vagrant-cascading-hadoop-cluster . (since I don’t have Git installed, I am simply going to Download Zip)
- Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2 : http://support.apple.com/kb/dl999
(Still trying to figure this one out but apparently it helps with the network mappings – see Cascading install instructions on GitHub)
