5.1 Installation
This section provides information for installing with or without (manual) the MapRInstaller, installing patches, upgrading, and migrating.
- Get Started: Install MapR
  The MapR Installer makes the installation of a MapR cluster easy. It installs MapR software after it takes you through the process of selecting services and configuring the cluster.

- Upgrade Guide
  - Upgrading and your License
    After upgrading MapR, the Base License file must be manually updated on all nodes in your cluster.

Set Up Individual Package Files

About this task

You can download package files, store them locally, and then install MapR from the files. This option is typically used to upgrade clusters that are not connected to the internet.

To upgrade MapR using individual package files, you need to first pre-install the MapR package dependencies on each node. See the Release Notes for the dependency packages required for the MapR services that you are installing. Manually download the packages and install them.

Procedure

Using a machine connected to the internet, download the tarball for the MapR components and the Hadoop ecosystem components, substituting the appropriate <platform>, <version>, and <datestamp>

RHEL:

http://package.mapr.com/releases/v<version>/<platform>/mapr-v<version>GA.rpm.tgz
http://package.mapr.com/releases/ecosystem-5.x/<platform>/mapr-ecosystem-5.x-<datestamp>.rpm.tgz

Ubuntu:

http://package.mapr.com/releases/v<version>/<platform>/mapr-v<version>GA.deb.tgz
http://package.mapr.com/releases/ecosystem-5.x/<platform>/mapr-ecosystem-5.x-<datestamp>.deb.tgz

For example: http://package.mapr.com/releases/v5.1.0/ubuntu/mapr-v5.1.0GA.deb.tgz

Extract the tarball to a local directory, either on each node or on a local network accessible by all nodes.
```
tar -xvzf mapr-v<version>GA.rpm.tgz
tar -xvzf mapr-ecosystem-5.x-<datestamp>.rpm.tgz
```
