NameNode Active and Standby state is not showing up in Ambari UI after enabling NN HA

[#1]

Hi,

We have enabled the NN HA by appending the parameters in hdfs-site.xml and core-site.xml by using config.py. But active and standby namenode state is not showing up in ambari UI. Please find the details below.

Parameters:

hdfs-site.xml:

"ha.zookeeper.quorum":"master.wpm.com:2181,wpm111.wpm.com:2181,wpm333.wpm.com:2181"
"dfs.ha.automatic-failover.enabled":"true"
"dfs.ha.fencing.methods":"shell(/bin/true)"
"dfs.client.failover.proxy.provider.mycluster":"org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.ha.ConfiguredFailoverProxyProvider"
"dfs.namenode.shared.edits.dir":"qjournal://master.wpm.com:8485;wpm111.wpm.com:8485;wpm333.wpm.com:8485/mycluster"
"dfs.namenode.http-address.mycluster.nn2":"wpm111.wpm.com:50070"
"dfs.namenode.http-address.mycluster.nn1":"master.wpm.com:50070"
"dfs.namenode.rpc-address.mycluster.nn2":"wpm111.wpm.com:8020"
"dfs.namenode.rpc-address.mycluster.nn1":"master.wpm.com:8020"
"dfs.namenode.https-address.mycluster.nn2": "wpm111.wpm.com:50470",
"dfs.namenode.https-address.mycluster.nn1": "master.wpm.com:50470"
"dfs.ha.namenodes.mycluster":"nn1,nn2"
"dfs.nameservices":"mycluster"

core-site.xml

"fs.defaultFS" : "hdfs://mycluster/"

Service State:

[hdfs@WPM0 0]$ hdfs haadmin -getServiceState nn1
standby
[hdfs@WPM0 0]$ hdfs haadmin -getServiceState nn2
active

Please find the ambari UI, Namenode UI and custom hdfs-site.xml screenshot here

I could see a few warning and errors in ambari-server log.

Could you please help on this.

Thanks,

@Sampath Kumar :
It looks like namenode is not installed on one of the hosts configured for namenode HA. Check both the hosts where you are trying to configure nn1 and nn2, and install the namenode on the host where it is not installed.

curl -u <ambari_user>:<ambari_password> -H "X-Requested-By:ambari" -i -X POST http://<ambari-port>:<ambari-port>/api/v1/clusters/<cluster_name>/hosts/<host_name>/host_components/...
