Installation configuration of Cassandra Database cluster

We are using DataStax Community Edition, the official website for the Cluster Control Center (opscenter) configuration is too brief, I tried 10 times to get it done: there should be no more detailed configuration instructions on the Internet.

Here are the detailed steps (I'm all installed on the Bleum 192.168.129.34 Linux VM):

Part 1: Installing Python

Install Python first (it's been a lot of pain here, but this cluster only supports python2.5,2,6,2,7, but the fact is that only 2.5 can.) The result I first down a 3.1, and then Linux since with a 2.4, try not to, and finally from the 2.7 start version of the decline in descending attempt, finally 2.5 can be

Compile and install Python and install it into the/usr/local/python2.5 directory

wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.4/Python-2.5.4.tgz

TAR-ZXVF python-2.5.4.tgz

CD Python-2.5.4

./configure--prefix=/usr/local/python2.5

Make

Make install

Install the Python network Development Framework Twisted

wget http://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/Twisted/10.0/Twisted-10.0.0.tar.bz2

TAR-JXVF twisted-10.0.0.tar.bz2

CD Twisted-10.0.0

Python setup.py Install

Configuring the Python environment variable

VI ~/BASHRC

Export Python=/usr/local/python2.5/bin/python

Part 2: Build Cassandra Cluster

Assume that all software is installed in the ~/datastax directory

Download Cassandra Release Package: (We have 3 packages, followed by the Cassandra Server package, the web-based Visual Cluster monitor package, the example on the cluster demo package)

wget http://downloads.datastax.com/community/dsc.tar.gz

wget http://downloads.datastax.com/community/opscenter.tar.gz

wget http://downloads.datastax.com/community/dsc-1.0.2-demo-bin.tar.gz

Unpack these packages:

TAR-ZXVF dsc-cassandra-1.0.9-bin.tar.gz

TAR-ZXVF opscenter-2.0-free.tar.gz

TAR-ZXVF dsc-1.0.2-demo-bin.tar.gz

To configure environment variables:

VI ~/.BASHRC

Add the following environment variable setting and reconfigure the PATH:

Export cassandra_home=/home/tbenjamin/datastax/dsc-cassandra-1.0.9

Export Dscdemo_home=/home/tbenjamin/datastax/dsc-1.0.2/demos/portfolio_manager

Export opsc_home=/home/tbenjamin/datastax/opscenter-2.0

Export path= $PATH: $JAVA _home/bin: $CASSANDRA _home/bin: $DSCDEMO _home/bin: $OPSC _home/bin

Finally, the following figure shows:
