Zookeeper – Installation ”; Previous Next Before installing ZooKeeper, make sure your system is running on any of the following operating systems − Any of Linux OS − Supports development and deployment. It is preferred for demo applications. Windows OS − Supports only development. Mac OS − Supports only development. ZooKeeper server is created in Java and it runs on JVM. You need to use JDK 6 or greater. Now, follow the steps given below to install ZooKeeper framework on your machine. Step 1: Verifying Java Installation We believe you already have a Java environment installed on your system. Just verify it using the following command. $ java -version If you have Java installed on your machine, then you could see the version of installed Java. Otherwise, follow the simple steps given below to install the latest version of Java. Step 1.1: Download JDK Download the latest version of JDK by visiting the following link and download the latest version. Java The latest version (while writing this tutorial) is JDK 8u 60 and the file is “jdk-8u60-linuxx64.tar.gz”. Please download the file on your machine. Step 1.2: Extract the files Generally, files are downloaded to the downloads folder. Verify it and extract the tar setup using the following commands. $ cd /go/to/download/path $ tar -zxf jdk-8u60-linux-x64.gz Step 1.3: Move to opt directory To make Java available to all users, move the extracted java content to “/usr/local/java” folder. $ su password: (type password of root user) $ mkdir /opt/jdk $ mv jdk-1.8.0_60 /opt/jdk/ Step 1.4: Set path To set path and JAVA_HOME variables, add the following commands to ~/.bashrc file. export JAVA_HOME = /usr/jdk/jdk-1.8.0_60 export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin Now, apply all the changes into the current running system. $ source ~/.bashrc Step 1.5: Java alternatives Use the following command to change Java alternatives. update-alternatives –install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_60/bin/java 100 Step 1.6 Verify the Java installation using the verification command (java -version) explained in Step 1. Step 2: ZooKeeper Framework Installation Step 2.1: Download ZooKeeper To install ZooKeeper framework on your machine, visit the following link and download the latest version of ZooKeeper. http://zookeeper.apache.org/releases.html As of now, the latest version of ZooKeeper is 3.4.6 (ZooKeeper-3.4.6.tar.gz). Step 2.2: Extract the tar file Extract the tar file using the following commands − $ cd opt/ $ tar -zxf zookeeper-3.4.6.tar.gz $ cd zookeeper-3.4.6 $ mkdir data Step 2.3: Create configuration file Open the configuration file named conf/zoo.cfg using the command vi conf/zoo.cfg and all the following parameters to set as starting point. $ vi conf/zoo.cfg tickTime = 2000 dataDir = /path/to/zookeeper/data clientPort = 2181 initLimit = 5 syncLimit = 2 Once the configuration file has been saved successfully, return to the terminal again. You can now start the zookeeper server. Step 2.4: Start ZooKeeper server Execute the following command − $ bin/zkServer.sh start After executing this command, you will get a response as follows − $ JMX enabled by default $ Using config: /Users/../zookeeper-3.4.6/bin/../conf/zoo.cfg $ Starting zookeeper … STARTED Step 2.5: Start CLI Type the following command − $ bin/zkCli.sh After typing the above command, you will be connected to the ZooKeeper server and you should get the following response. Connecting to localhost:2181 ……………. ……………. ……………. Welcome to ZooKeeper! ……………. ……………. WATCHER:: WatchedEvent state:SyncConnected type: None path:null [zk: localhost:2181(CONNECTED) 0] Stop ZooKeeper Server After connecting the server and performing all the operations, you can stop the zookeeper server by using the following command. $ bin/zkServer.sh stop Print Page Previous Next Advertisements ”;
