Cluster Configuration

Dremio has two main sets of configurations that control its behavior and settings:

  1. Dremio Services configs: Dremio cluster settings, core system configurations, and node roles are defined in dremio.conf.

  2. Environment properties: Dremio environment settings dealing mainly with Java options, logging, and system performance and memory tuning are created in dremio-env.

These two sets of configurations allow administrators to fine-tune Dremio for different deployment scenarios, whether for a standalone setup or a distributed cluster.

Starting Dremio

To start Dremio on each node in your cluster depending on your installation (RPM vs Tarball). This assumes Dremio is configured as a service.

Tarball: $ sudo <DREMIO-HOME>/bin/dremio start

RPM: $ sudo service dremio start

Completing Setup

Open a browser and navigate to http://<COORDINATOR_NODE>:9047.

  1. Create your first Admin user (the Dremio UI walks you through this process).
  2. Click the Admin button (at the top-right of the page) to confirm that each of the Dremio nodes that you set up during the install are functioning properly.
note

Each node's hostname or IP address should be listed, along with a green status light.
