There are 3 ways to avoid updates just tweak you disable ambari & hdp* repos by changing the URL o a non-existant host

• /etc/yum.repos.d/ *.repo

  
  
• /etc/host file
  
• Just block the public-repo-1.hortonworks.com public IP
  

Hope that helps

[#3]

regarding the /etc/hosts , do you mean to put as:

1.1.1.1  public-repo-1.hortonworks.com

while no access to 1.1.1.1

[#4]

regarding the last option - Just block the public-repo-1.hortonworks.com public IP

what you mean just "lock the public-repo-1.hortonworks.com public IP"

HOW?

remark we use only scripts to install ambari & HDP , so if we need to change someting in ambari we need to use API in order to perfrom some changing

I meant using i.e Firewall to block the public-repo-1.hortonworks.com public IP or disable it in the repo by setting enabled=0 (false) instead of 1 (true) see below

[HDP-UTILS-1.1.0.21]
name=HDP-UTILS-1.1.0.21baseurl=http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP-UTILS-1.1.0.21/repos/xx
path=/
enabled=0

That you can use a script
