Hi  thanks for your Message. I found the Problem, after removal of Kerberos from the Cluster someone set Root:supergroup on /. I change ist back to hdfs:<amingroup> and now hue can create Homedirs.   rg marcel  ... View more

@asmarz  On the edgenode Just to validate your situation I have spun up single node cluster Tokyo IP 192.168.0.67 and installed an edge node Busia IP 192.168.0.66 I will demonstrate the spark client setup on the edge node and evoke the spark-shell First I have to configure the passwordless ssh below my edge node   Passwordless setup [root@busia ~]# mkdir .ssh [root@busia ~]# chmod 600 .ssh/ [root@busia ~]# cd .ssh [root@busia .ssh]# ll total 0   Networking not setup The master is unreachable from the edge node [root@busia .ssh]# ping 198.168.0.67 PING 198.168.0.67 (198.168.0.67) 56(84) bytes of data.

You will notice I didn't update the  HDFS , YARN, MAPRED,HIVE  configurations it was automatically done by Ambari during the installation it copied over to the edge node the correct conf files !! The asmarz user from the edge node can also acess HDFS   Now as user asmarz  I have launched a spark-submit job  from the edge node  The launch is successful on the master Tokyo  see Resource Manager URL, that can be confirmed  in the RM UI This walkthrough validates that any user on the edge node can launch a job in the cluster this poses a security problem in production hence my earlier hint of Kerberos. Having said that  you will realize I didn't  do any special configuration  after the client installation because Ambari distributes the correct configuration of all the component  and it does that for every installation of a new component that's the reason  Ambari is a management tool If this walkthrough answers your question, please do accept the answer and close the thread.
