Phoenix not displayed at "Add Service" in Ambari

We are using Ambari 2.2.0.0 and HDP 2.3.4.0. We want to add a Phoenix-Server in Ambari but there is no Phoenix-Server when we try to add with Actions>>Add Service. In another environment using the same Ambari and HDP-Version it is possible. Has anyone an idea whats the reason for this?

Phoenix is a library always added to HBase. There are also Phoenix Query servers which are essentially Phoenix proxies for clients who cannot access all data nodes. They can be added to a host on the host page

Click on a host, press +Add: Phoenix Query Server ( more like a client than a service since Phoenix is already part of HBAse )

Not really, its more a server but since its just a proxy similarly to the httpfs servers they didn't add it as the own service. After all Phoenix is always installed. ( I normally try to avoid the Query server anyway for performance issues. Diretly accessing Phoenix over the Hbase API is normally the better choice as long as your clients have access to all Regionservers )
