Installing HDF on Ambari with HDP 3.0.0.0 fails

Hi,


I ve a completely new cluster setup with ambari 2.7 and HDP 3.0.0.0. I want to install HDF 3.1.2.0 using ambari, however it does not work:

I installed hdf-ambari-mpack-3.1.3.0-7. There was no problem.

1. Then I went to Ambari UI --> Cluster Admin --> Stack and Versions --> Versions --> Manage Versions. I came to this view:

2. I selected "Register Version" and i come to the second view also attached. However, there is no version called "HDF-XXXX". Why? Is this a bug?

3. I tried to Workaround and clicked on HDP-3.0 dropdown and uploaded the Version Definition File of HDF-3.1.2.0. I came to the menu attached in the 3. attachment and entered my local HDF and HDF Utils repositories.

4. When I came back to the menu:

80591-6.png6.png(19.2 kB)

.. I clicked INSTALL ON and choose my cluster. However: Nothing happened.

I suspect that the there failed something with the hdf mpack. However there was no error or warning at all.

I Installed the ambari HDP Cluster two times and both times I come to exact this problem

Could you give me any advice / workaround?

Best

Luke

Hi @Luke Luke ,

I see as per website : https://supportmatrix.hortonworks.com/ (accessible with hortonworks support subscription) and this link : https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDF3/HDF-3.1.2/support-matrix.html

Ambari-2.7.0 is not compatable with HDF 3.1.2.0 .

You might need to install Ambari-2.6.2.2 inorder to support HDF-3.1.2.0 or lesser Ambari-2.6.x.x versions.

Hope this helps.

This still appears to be a problem...I am attempting to install HDF 3.2.0.0 into Ambari 2.7.0.0 that is managing a brand new HDP 3.0.0 cluster, management pack installed fine, but when I ayyempt to specify the version info file URL (had to google for it: http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDF/ubuntu16/3.x/updates/3.2.0.0/HDF-3.2.0.0-520.xml) Ambari complains: "An internal system exception occurred: Stack data, Stack HDF 3.2 is not found in Ambari metainfo"

Any idea what might be the issue(s)?

Thanks,

Doug

Nevermind, used the PDF docs (https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDF3/HDF-3.2.0/installing-hdf/hdf-installing-hdf.pdf) with new VMs and all is good now.
