Install Pulse Agents
This page helps you deploy Pulse Agents (Hydra) on all Hadoop cluster nodes where services are installed.
Pulse Agents collect the system and service level data from Hadoop services and send it to the databases.
Pulse Agents (Hydra) include the following:
- Node Agent
- Logs Agent
- JMX Agent
- AXN Agent
- YARNMetrics Agent
- Hydra Agent
You can deploy the Hydra Server in the Pulse Server to configure, manage, and monitor these agents. The Hydra Agent, running on each Hadoop node, applies the configuration and reports agent status back to the Hydra Server.
The deployment steps vary based on your Hadoop cluster distribution, CDP or Non-CDP (HDP or ODP).
To get started, choose one of the ways based on your cluster distribution:
