Automated console installer for Hortonworks Data Platform on Windows. Can be used to install multi-node clusters, uninstall clusters or add nodes to an existing cluster.

This installer can be used to deploy HDP windows multi-node clusters, uninstall HDP from multi node machines and add new nodes and services to existing clusters. The installer is a console application written in .NET that utilizes Powershell 3.0 capabilities for invoking remote commands. This application has been tested with Server 2008 R2 (should work on 2008) and Server 2012.

The prebuilt package for installation is located at https://github.com/acesir/WindowsHDP/tree/master/PrebuiltPackage and contains all the files you need to deploy HDP 2.0 on Windows except the HDP msi package (is too large) which will need to downloaded manually and added. In the WinHDP folder you will find the executable for the console application called WinHDP.exe and in the Files directory you will find all the required software (except HDP msi) files as well as a sample clusterproperties file which will need to be edited based on the cluster you are deploying too.
