With Aspire 2.2 the installation process of the Aspire for Hadoop distribution changed. The Aspire Hadoop MapRed Driver will automatically deploy the Aspire for Hadoop distribution across all nodes of the cluster. 

For installation process information pre 2.2 see Installing Aspire for Hadoop pre 2.2


Setting up Aspire for Hadoop Distribution

  1. Download the Aspire for Hadoop Distribution.
  2. Unzip the distribution.
  3. Edit the file config/settings.xml to add your Aspire credentials.
  4. Save the file.
  5. Add any external files or components that your distribution might require to have local access to (not through Maven).

When running the driver, the parameter aspire-distribution-location needs to point to the distribution folder.
