Hi All,

When I go to the Cluster's services, most of the services failed. When I tried to restart each services, it took a long time to start it. Help would be appreciated.

Hi @David Yee,

Below are two solution i can suggest to resolve your problem -

1. You can use "Private IP address" instead of public ip address [ie. 52.77.231.10] in /etc/hosts file. No more changes will be required [assuming you have use hostname while registering hosts with ambari]. Changing the hosts file will take an effect to get service started, if not make sure you restart the cluster for changes to take effect. PFA screenshot.

2. You can use Elastic IP for your ec2 instances, so that the ip will never change even if your instance gets restarted. You can see the below link for assigning elastic ip to ec2-instances -

[Note: Elastic ip are not free.Make sure you check AWS costing model for the same.]

Hi Neeraj,

Can you help me to check if my hosts file is configured correctly? Just to let you know that I am using AWS EC2 as the server and everytime I restart my server it will give me a new IP address.

Best Regards

Sorry guys managed to finally start the namenode by changing the value to 0.0.0.0. It works perfectly.
