Python Version concerning Ambari 2.5.2 or 2.6 on CentOS 6 ?

[#1]

Hi,

in the documentation (https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.0/bk_support-matrices/content/ch_matrices-amb...) for the upgrade of Ambari (2.4.2 to 2.5.2 or 2.6) and the python version needed (Software Requirements), the version of python for CentOS 6 is not indicated. (for CentOS 7 -> python 2.7, for CentOS 6 -> nothing). What python version is needed for Ambari 2.5.2 (or later) on CentOS 6 ?

Best Regards

Gerald

@Gerald BIDAULT,

As you are using CentOS 6, I suggest you to use python 2.6.*. (which is what is installed by default). It is not recommended to use python 2.7 on CentOS6.

Python 2.6 is the mininum required version. You cant go below that

Thanks,
