Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore

  • Reference
Module:
Azure

Adds a SQL Server database account to an HDInsight cluster configuration.

Note

The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Azure Service Manager (ASM) APIs. This legacy PowerShell module isn't recommended when creating new resources since ASM is scheduled for retirement. For more information, see Azure Service Manager retirement.

The Az PowerShell module is the recommended PowerShell module for managing Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resources with PowerShell.

Syntax

Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore
   -Config <AzureHDInsightConfig>
   -Credential <PSCredential>
   -DatabaseName <String>
   -MetastoreType <AzureHDInsightMetastoreType>
   -SqlAzureServerName <String>
   [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

This version of Azure PowerShell HDInsight is deprecated. These cmdlets will be removed by January 1, 2017. Please use the newer version of Azure PowerShell HDInsight.

For information about how to use the new HDInsight to create a cluster, see Create Linux-based clusters in HDInsight using Azure PowerShell (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/hdinsight-hadoop-create-linux-clusters-azure-powershell/). For information about how to submit jobs by using Azure PowerShell and other approaches, see Submit Hadoop jobs in HDInsight (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/hdinsight-submit-hadoop-jobs-programmatically/). For reference information about Azure PowerShell HDInsight, see Azure HDInsight Cmdlets.

The Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore cmdlet adds a Microsoft SQL Server database to an Azure HDInsight configuration that is created by the New-AzureHDInsightClusterConfig cmdlet. The database is used to store metadata for Hive or Oozie, or both.

Examples

Example 1: Add a metastore

PS C:\>$Metaconfig = Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -Config $Config -SqlAzureServerName "ContosoSQLServer" -DatabaseName "DBname" -Credential (Get-Credential) -MetastoreType HiveMetaStore

This command adds a SQL Server database named ContosoSQLServer to serve as a Hive metastore for an HDInsight cluster.

Example 2: Configure storage and add metastores

PS C:\>$SubId = (Get-AzureSubscription -Current).SubscriptionId
PS C:\> $Key1 = Get-AzureStorageKey -StorageAccountName "MyBlobStorage" | %{ $_.Primary }
PS C:\> $Key2 = Get-AzureStorageKey -StorageAccountName "MySecondBlobStorage" | %{ $_.Primary }
PS C:\> $Creds = Get-Credential
PS C:\> $OozieCreds = Get-Credential
PS C:\> $HiveCreds = Get-Credential
PS C:\> New-AzureHDInsightClusterConfig -ClusterSizeInNodes 4
    | Set-AzureHDInsightDefaultStorage -StorageAccountName "MyBlobStorage.blob.core.windows.net" -StorageAccountKey $Key1 -StorageContainerName "MyContainer"
    | Add-AzureHDInsightStorage -StorageAccountName "MySecondBlobStorage.blob.core.windows.net" -StorageAccountKey $Key2
    | Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName "MySqlServer.database.windows.net" -DatabaseName "MyOozieDatabaseName" -Credential $OozieCreds -MetastoreType OozieMetastore
    | Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore -SqlAzureServerName "MySqlServer.database.widows.net" -DatabaseName "MyHiveDatabaseName" -Credential $HiveCreds -MetastoreType HiveMetastore
    | New-AzureHDInsightCluster -Subscription $SubId -Credential $Creds

The first command uses the Get-AzureSubscription cmdlet to get the current subscription ID, and then stores it in the $SubId variable.

The second and third commands use the Get-AzureStorageKey cmdlet to get the primary storage keys for MyBlobStorage and MySecondBlobStorage, and then store the keys in the $Key1 and $Key2 variables, respectively.

The fourth, fifth, and sixth commands use the Get-Credential cmdlet to get credentials for the current subscription and for Oozie and Hive, and then store the credentials in variables.

The final command performs a sequence of operations by using these cmdlets:

  • New-AzureHDInsightClusterConfig to create an HDInsight cluster configuration.
  • Set-AzureHDInsightDefaultStorage to set the default storage account for the configuration to MyBlobStorage.blob.core.windows.net.
  • Add-AzureHDInsightStorage to add a second storage account named MySecondBlobStorage.blob.core.windows.net to the configuration.
  • Add-AzureHDInsightMetastore to add a metastore for Oozie and a metastore for Hive to the configuration.
  • New-AzureHDInsightCluster to create an HDInsight cluster with the new configuration.
