Accessing Ambari Repositories

spitsios — Fri, 03 Jan 2020 14:03:29 GMT

Hi all. First of all, let me wish you a happy and prosperous new year.

I am trying to install HDP via Ambari. Based on the latest docs (https://docs.cloudera.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.7.5.0/bk_ambari-installation/content/access_ambari_paywall.html). According to it, starting from HDP 3.1.5 / Ambari 2.7.5, accessing Ambari repositories requires a special set of credentials. Does anybody has an idea of how to get such credentials? Unfortunately, instructions on the specific documentation site are not intuitive.

Thanks in advance!

Looks like they did block public access to 2.7.5... the documentation indicates the info will be sent to your licensed support contact via email, or requested as below:

Authentication credentials for new customers and partners are provided in an email sent from Cloudera to registered support contacts. Existing users can file a non-technical case within the support portal (https://my.cloudera.com) to obtain credentials.d

If you want 2.7.5 without a support contract, you may want to go directly to the source:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Installation+Guide+for+Ambari+2.7.5

Prior to this recent change, this is all you need to get the ambari and hdp repos:

wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.3.0/ambari.repo

then

yum install ambari-server ambari-agent -y

The example above is for centos, other flavors should be similarly fetched and installed.

Hey, thanks for your quick and detailed response.

I have also contacted sales to clarify this issue. In the meanwhile I can either use version 2.7.4.0 which still seems to be publicly accessible, or go with 2.7.5.0 directly from source as you pointed out.

Thanks again.

if this is open source, why a none customer of Cloudrea can't download it.

You are right. Why do I even need a user name and password to download it?

It doesn't look like an open-source.
