Hi Lucio,

You need to install any of following on your build machine. These are one t=
ime install and do not need internet connection. You can download ISO of VS=
 and install.
These tools are necessary to build native C++ code in hadoop-common and had=
oop-hdfs
1.Windows 7.1 SDK (Along with Microsoft Visual C++ 10)
OR
2. Windows 8.1 SDK with Visual Studio 2013 Express (If this is installed, f=
ollow instructions in http://zutai.blogspot.com/2014/06/build-install-and-r=
un-hadoop-24-240-on.html?showComment=3D1422091525887#c2264594416650430988 t=
o upgrade Build files0

The above installation can be in any drive.
Just ensure that you use the command prompt given by SDK/Visual Studio. The=
se command prompts will have paths set to msbuild.exe, cl.exe etc.
If you do not want to use these command prompt, then run the relevant batch=
 files to set all ENV variable. These batch files can be found in the VS in=
stallation directory.
Eg:  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64\=
vcvarsx86_amd64.bat" This batch files will set all relevant PATH


Maven needs internet connection to download the dependent POM and JARs.
If your build server is not having internet access, then you need to comple=
te a successful build on some other machine and copy maven repo directory t=
o build server.
While building you can instruct maven to work offline and  use the build di=
rectory you have copied.

Eg: you can add this option "-Drepo.dir=3DD:\maven_repo -o"  to mvn command=
s on build server


Regards,
Kiran
