Deploying hortonworks sandbox VM to cluster

[#1]

Hello everyone- can you please advise if we can deploy sandbox VM to a virtualized cluster ? We do have a virtualized environment and want to do experiment with hadoop. Can VM be used for this purpose ? As we need multimode cluster

Hi @Waqar Sher. The sandbox is fully functional representation of a pseudo cluster environment but it does have some additional features built-in which allow it to work specifically in single VM environment. There is no method or reason to deploy the sandbox VM to a cluster.

You will want to begin with an Ambari install. The documentation can be found here https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari/Ambari-2.6.1.3/index.html

Hope this helps.
