Running impala cluster from portable binaries

I'm evaluating multiple big data tools. One of them is of course Impala.
I would like to start Impala cluster by manually starting processes on the cluster nodes. As I'm currently doing for Spark, H2O, Presto and Dask, I would like to grab binaries, copy to nodes, edit configs, and start services on nodes from shell. This works very well, it's straightforward to upgrade and I can easily move to bigger/different clusters when needed. Unfortunately I cannot find resources on proper way for starting required services (Catalog Server, StateStore and daemons) from shell.
I assume it is obvious task but just cannot find a proper example to follow, so my question is how can I start Impala cluster from shell calling Impala binaries?

Update 1:

You may want to pick only the required info from this link: http://doc.mapr.com/plugins/servlet/mobile#content/view/28869628
