Is somebody try to install Hawq (HDB-2.2.0.0) on HDP-2.6.1 (Ambari-2.5)?

[#1]

We have installed HDP 2.5.0. on Centos 7. If we want to use Hawq on Centos 7 we need to install Hawq 2.2.0. According to Support matrix: https://hdb.docs.pivotal.io/220/hdb/releasenotes/HAWQ220ReleaseNotes.html Hawq 2.2.0 can be installed with Ambari 2.4.2 and HDP 2.5.3. We need to upgrade HDP cluster and it will be better if we could upgrade to 2.6.1.

Is somebody tries to install Hawq 2.2.0 on HDP 2.6.1 which use Ambari 2.5.0? Can you give us a recommendation?

Typically, the Ambari plug-in that is used to install and manage HAWQ is tied to the Ambari version. As you pointed out, HAWQ 2.2.0.0 requires Ambari v2.4.2 with HDP v2.5.3.

Alternatively, you could install HAWQ by rpm and not use Ambari at all. This will require a great deal more knowledge of how HAWQ works and Ambari will not have HAWQ listed at all. The requirement here is just the HDP version. You'll also have to manage HAWQ outside of Ambari.
