option for

Cluster Type

. Select one of the following options to specify the Hadoop distribution:

ClouderaManager. Use this option if you want to use a ClouderaManager Hadoop distribution.
Hortonworks. Use this option if you want to use a Hortonworks Hadoop distribution.
If you select ClouderaManager or Hortonworks as the Hadoop distribution, Enterprise Data Catalog automatically identifies the following properties for the Hadoop-distribution type:

Yarn resource manager scheduler URI
HDInsight. Use this option if you want to use an Azure HDInsight Hadoop distribution.
Others. Use this option if you want to manually specify all the properties for a ClouderaManager, Hortonworks, or an Azure HDInsight Hadoop distribution. Make sure that you configure the following custom options for the Catalog Service:
LdmCustomOptions.yarn-site.yarn.application.classpath
LdmCustomOptions.yarn-site.yarn.nodemanager.webapp.address
LdmCustomOptions.yarn-site.yarn.nodemanager.webapp.https.address
If you select ClouderaManager or Hortonworks, configure the following properties with the other required properties :
Cluster URL. The cluster URL to access the selected Hadoop distribution.
Cluster URL username. The username to access the cluster URL.
Cluster URL password. The password associated with the cluster URL username.
