About Release 8.0.0
This site contains documentation for HPE Data Fabric release 8.0.0, including installation, configuration, administration, and reference content, as well as content for the associated ecosystem components and drivers.
8.0.0 Installation
This section contains information about installing HPE Data Fabric software. It also contains information about how to migrate data and applications from an Apache Hadoop cluster to a HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster.
8.0.0 Upgrade
This section describes how to upgrade HPE Data Fabric software.
8.0.0 Data Fabric
HPE Data Fabric is the industry-leading data platform for AI and analytics that solves enterprise business needs.
8.0.0 Administration
This section describes how to manage the nodes and services that make up a cluster.
- Working with Multiple Fabrics Using the Data Fabric UI
  This section describes how you can get started learning about, installing, and using the HPE Data Fabric.
- Administering Users and Clusters
  Lists topics that help manage a Data Fabric cluster.
- Administering Nodes
  Provides a synopsis of managing nodes in a cluster.
- Administering Volumes
  This section provide information about how to organize and manage data using volumes, a unique feature of HPE Data Fabric clusters.
- Administering Files and Directories
- Administering Tables
  Administration of the HPE Data Fabric Database is done primarily via the command line (maprcli) or with the Managed Control System (MCS). Regardless of whether the HPE 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 Data Fabric Database administration is associated with tables, columns and column families, and table regions.
- Administering Streams
- Administering Data Fabric Gateways
  A HPE Data Fabric gateway mediates one-way communication between a source HPE Data Fabric cluster and a destination cluster. You can replicate HPE Data Fabric Database tables (binary and JSON) and HPE Data Fabric Streams streams. HPE 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.
  - Monitoring Using the Control System and the CLI
    Describes the Overview page in the Control System, which displays information about the cluster.
    - Setting the Refresh Rate on the Control System
      Explains how to configure the user inactivity timeout setting, graph and data refresh settings from the Control System.
    - Setting Timer to End Session for Inactive User
      Describes how to set the user inactivity timer to auto-terminate an inactive Control System user session.
    - Customizing the List of Metric Charts and Columns on the Control System
      Explains how to customize the list of metric charts and columns on the Control System.
    - Monitoring the Cluster
      Explains how to view the cluster health, disk, memory, CPU utilization metrics, and alarms on the cluster using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring Nodes
      Explains how to monitor nodes using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring YARN
    - Monitoring Volumes
      Explains how to monitor volume parameters using the Control System.
    - Monitoring Tables
      Explains how to monitor table alarms and view table metrics in the Control System.
    - Monitoring Streams
      Explains how to monitor streams using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring Alarms
      Provides an overview of how to monitor alarms using the Control Panel and the CLI.
    - Monitoring Errors
      Explains how to monitor errors using the Control System.
  - Using HPE Data Fabric Monitoring (Spyglass Initiative)
    HPE Data Fabric Monitoring (part of the Spyglass initiative) provides the ability to collect, store, and view metrics and logs for nodes, services, and jobs/applications.
  - Configuring Data Fabric to Track User Behavior
    Describes how to configure Data Fabric to track user behavior.
- 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.
