      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks &lt;A rel="user" href="https://community.cloudera.com/users/140/nsabharwal.html" nodeid="140"&gt;@Neeraj Sabharwal&lt;/A&gt; . But the setting under Ambari Metrics for "zookeeper.znode.parent" is blank and is greyed out. I found this under&lt;/P&gt;&lt;PRE&gt;Advanced ams-hbase-security-site&lt;/PRE&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you have a kerberized environment, make sure hbase.regionserver.kerberos.principal and hbase.master.kerberos.principal are the same, this caused some issues in the past.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Also set the zookeeper.znode.parent to /ams-hbase if you have NOT kerberized your env. otherwise set it to /ams-hbase-secure&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Stop all Ambari Metrics components, log into the machine and make sure there is no running metrics process (&lt;EM&gt;ps aux | grep metrics&lt;/EM&gt;)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Start Metrics again and check the Hbase Master and Metrics Collector log (both in /var/log/ambari-metrics/collector/....)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Are you using a distributed or embedded mode? &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Could you please post the following configurations:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;hbase.rootdir&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;hbase.cluster.distributed&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Metrics service operation mode&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;hbase.zookeeper.quorum&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Since hbase.cluster.distributed is true, could you please change "Metrics service operation mode" to "distributed"&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;A rel="user" href="https://community.cloudera.com/users/1271/sheltong.html" nodeid="1271"&gt;@Geoffrey Shelton Oko&lt;/A&gt;&lt;P&gt; &lt;A rel="user" href="https://community.cloudera.com/users/140/nsabharwal.html" nodeid="140"&gt;@Neeraj Sabharwal&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Still the same result. Wondering if its a good idea to wipe-out all the ambari-metrics component and re-install the service. What's the clean process of doing it..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Prakash&lt;/P&gt;</description>
