Symptoms:

When tried to install SmartSense then it failed on Activity Analyzer installation which is the first step of SmartSense installation.

Similar error occurs when trying to reinstall HST SERVER then it failed with similar message.

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/resource_management/libraries/script/config_dictionary.py", line 73, in _getattr_raise Fail("Configuration parameter '" + self.name + "' was not found in configurations dictionary!")resource_management.core.exceptions.Fail: Configuration parameter 'namenode_host' was not found in configurations dictionary!

Reason:

SmartSense components assumed that hdfs will always be available on each node.
