I found the issue. 9092 was not my port. I went to ambari and found the listening port was set to 6667 ... View more

I do not believe you can use Ambari to configure this, but the manual instructions at http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.5.0/bk_command-line-installation/content/install_kafka_rpms.html call out some notes on how to approach this "not recommended" strategy. I guess a member of the Support team would have to be solicited for a more definitive answer, but... it sounds like it is supported. ... View more

I found the information here https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/administration-guide.html NiFi Cluster Coordinator: A NiFi Cluster Cluster Coordinator is the node in a NiFI cluster that is responsible for carrying out tasks to manage which nodes are allowed in the cluster and providing the most up-to-date flow to newly joining nodes. When a DataFlow Manager manages a dataflow in a cluster, they are able to do so through the User Interface of any node in the cluster. Any change made is then replicated to all nodes in the cluster. ... View more

@Sunile Manjee As far as best practices goes, we do not recommend installing ZK on the same servers/nodes as NiFi. NiFi dataflows can be very CPU, disk, and/or memory intensive. Any of these can interfere with ZK --> NiFi comms/performance. This can result in NiFi nodes dropping from cluster, new NiFi cluster coordinators being assigned, and/or new primary nodes being elected frequently. While it does work, i would keep away from co-location in production for sure. Thank, Matt ... View more
