  - Managing Nodes
    Describes the Nodes page on the Control System.
  - Managing Roles
    Describes how to manage roles on a node.
  - Managing Services
    Synopsis on managing services.
    - Viewing the List of Services
      Explains how to view the list of services using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Enabling and Disabling a Service Using the CLI and REST API
      Describes how to enable or disable a service using either the REST API or the CLI.
    - Starting the Services
      Explains how to start services using either the Control System, the CLI or the REST API.
    - Stopping the Services

  - Managing Disks
    Provides a brief overview of adding and removing disks from the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric file system.
- Administering Volumes
  This section provide information about how to organize and manage data using volumes, a unique feature of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric clusters.
- Administering Files and Directories
- Administering Tables
  Administration of the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database is done primarily via the command line (maprcli) or with the Managed Control System (MCS). Regardless of whether the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database table is used for binary files or JSON documents, the same types of commands are used with slightly different parameter options. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database administration is associated with tables, columns and column families, and table regions.
- Administering Streams
- Administering Data Fabric Gateways
  A HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric gateway mediates one-way communication between a source HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster and a destination cluster. You can replicate HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database tables (binary and JSON) and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Streams streams. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric gateways also apply updates from JSON tables to their secondary indexes and propagate Change Data Capture (CDC) logs.
- Administering Services
- Monitoring the Cluster
  This section describes how to monitor the health and performance of a MapR cluster.
- Configuring Security
  Describes how to configure security and manage secure clusters.
- Managing Secure Clusters
  Provides procedures that will enable you to use Data Fabric clusters securely.
- Administering the Data Access Gateway
  The HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Data Access Gateway is a service that acts as a proxy and gateway for translating requests between lightweight client applications and the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster. This section describes considerations when upgrading the service, how to modify configuration settings, and how to administer and manage the service.

Changing the User for Data Fabric Services from the Command-Line

Explains how use the CLI to change the user that data-fabric services run as.

About this task

All services should run with the same uid/gid on all nodes in the cluster.

Running Data Fabric Services as the Root User

Procedure

Stop Warden.
```
service mapr-warden stop
```
If ZooKeeper is installed on the node, stop it.
```
service mapr-zookeeper stop
```
Run the script $INSTALL_DIR/server/config-mapr-user.sh -u root
If Zookeeper is installed, start it.
```
service mapr-zookeeper start
```
Start Warden.
```
service mapr-warden start
```

Running Data Fabric Services as a Non-Root User

Procedure

Stop Warden.
```
service mapr-warden stop
```
If ZooKeeper is installed on the node, stop it.
```
service mapr-zookeeper stop
```
If the MAPR_USER does not exist, create the user/group with the same UID and GID.
If the MAPR_USER exists, verify that the uid of MAPR_USER is the same as the value on the CLDB node.
Run $INSTALL_DIR/server/config-mapr-user.sh -u MAPR_USER.
If Zookeeper is installed, start it.
```
service mapr-zookeeper start
```
Start Warden.
```
service mapr-warden start
```
After clearing NODE_ALARM_MAPRUSER_MISMATCH alarms on all nodes, run $INSTALL_DIR/server/upgrade2mapruser.sh on all nodes wherever the alarm is raised.
