This post is for VirtualBox-5.0.12 and Cloudera Training VM cloudera-quickstart-vm-4.4.0. I believe the steps will be the same or additional minor steps will be required for the future versions of “VM”s and VirtualBox.
You need the following:
- The latest VirtualBox software: Visit www.virtualbox.org, if not available with you already and install on your local system.
- The latest Cloudera Training VM: Visit the http://www.cloudera.com/content/www/en-us/downloads.html. The Cloudera Training VM typically bundled which needs to be extracted on the OS disk directory.
- Unbundle the VM from Command line:
- Run following command on Unix based OSs (ex: Linux or OS X):
tar xjf cloudera-quickstart-vm-4.4.0-1-vmware.7z
- Or GUI based extractor software can be used, if available. It will be extracted in the below mentioned directory with 3 files in it.

4. Start the VirtualBox.
5. Press, the New button from the icon bar on the top.
6. Configure new VirtualBox VM as follows:
- Name: any reasonable name indicating it is a Cloudera Training VM and its version.
- Type: Linux
- Version: Ubuntu (64 bit) (Note: VM is on CentOS a flavor of Ubuntu)
Memory Size: for basic operations can be kept as 1024mb. For full application development cycle can be expended to a size depending on additional space and memory available on your system. - Hard disk: We have already extracted Training VM on our local directory that can be used as option “Use an existing virtual hard disk file” and select the location of .vmdk file.
- Press Create button to create the VM. You are all set here for basic operations.
8. Now you are ready to start the VM. Press start button and VirtualBox will boot into CentOS:
