Enabling the Big SQL extension

After you have installed the Big SQL package, follow these steps to enable the Big SQL extension.

Procedure

  1. On the Ambari Server node, navigate to the /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/extensions/IBM-Big_SQL/5.0.1.0/scripts directory. This directory contains files to enable and disable Big SQL. Run the enable script for Big SQL to appear in the stack.
    For example, if you want to enable Big SQL:
    cd /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/extensions/IBM-Big_SQL/5.0.1.0/scripts/
./EnableBigSQLExtension.py
  2. Open the Ambari web interface and log in.
    The default address is the following URL:
    http://<server-name>:<server-port>
    The default login name is admin and the default password is admin. Use HTTPS if your Ambari server has SSL enabled for the Ambari Web UI.
  3. Click Actions > Add service. In the list of services, you will see the services that you previously added as well as the Big SQL services you can now add.
