Adding Hadoop Client to existing nodes

[#1]

How can hadoop client libraries be added to a node that already exists in the cluster? Can this be done through Ambari?

[#2 · Accepted solution]

@bsaini yes, go to the node in question and in the same add services section, click on add clients and choose the ones you need.

in my screenshot HCat client is the only client that is not installed, in your case, you may have many more depending on services installed.
