Instructions

Please use the following instructions to download and install the Cloudera Quickstart VM with
VirutalBox before proceeding to the Getting Started with the Cloudera VM Environment video. The
screenshots are from a Mac but the instructions should be the same for Windows. Please see the
discussion boards if you have any issues.

1. Install VirtualBox. Go to https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads to download and install


VirtualBox for your computer. The course uses Virtualbox 5.1.X, so we recommend clicking
VirtualBox 5.1 builds on that page and downloading the older package for ease of following
instructions and screenshots. However, it shouldn't be too different if you choose to use or
upgrade to VirtualBox 5.2.X. For Windows, select the link "VirtualBox 5.1.X for Windows
hosts x86/amd64" where 'X' is the latest version.
2. For Ubuntu Select "VirtualBox 5.1.X for Windows hosts x86/amd64" where 'X' is the
latest version.

2. Download the Cloudera VM. Download the Cloudera VM


fromhttps://downloads.cloudera.com/demo_vm/virtualbox/cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-
virtualbox.zip. The VM is over 4GB, so will take some time to download.

3. Unzip the Cloudera VM:


Right-click cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-virtualbox.zip and select “Extract All…”

4. Start VirtualBox.

5. Begin importing. Import the VM by going to File -> Import Appliance

6. Click the Folder icon.


7. Select the cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-virtualbox.ovf from the Folder where you unzipped
the VirtualBox VM and click Open.
8. Click Next to proceed.
9. Click Import.
10. The virtual machine image will be imported. This can take several minutes.

11. Launch Cloudera VM. When the importing is finished, the quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0 VM will appear
on the left in the VirtualBox window. Select it and click the Start button to launch the VM.
12. Cloudera VM booting. It will take several minutes for the Virtual Machine to start. The booting
process takes a long time since many Hadoop tools are started.
13. The Cloudera VM desktop. Once the booting process is complete, the desktop will appear with
a browser.
