  2. Edit baseurl in the repo file (the filename can differ): 
    vi /etc/yum.repos.d/cloudera-manager.repo
#vi /etc/yum.repos.d/cloudera-cm.repo
    1. For the latest maintenance version of a specific minor version (for example, the latest 5.7 version): 
      baseurl = https://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/redhat/6/x86_64/cm/5.7/
    2. For a specific maintenance version (for example, 5.7.2): 
      baseurl = https://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/redhat/6/x86_64/cm/5.7.2/


  3. Run Cloudera Manager wizard and stop at Step 1 Step 1 of Cluster Installation.

    2. Or, for a specific maintenance release:

    2. Or, for a specific maintenance release:
