How to install Ambari Server on CentOS 7
To install Ambari Server on CentOS 7
The Apache Ambari project is aimed at making Hadoop management simpler by developing software for provisioning, managing, and monitoring Apache Hadoop clusters. Ambari provides an intuitive, easy-to-use Hadoop management web UI backed by its RESTful APIs. It is really so simple to install Ambari Server on CentOS 7 and this tutorial covers the ground on the same process.
Installing Ambari
Let us now begin this process by adding the public repository for Ambari. Make use of the following command for the same purpose.
[root@localhost ~]# wget -nv http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.2.2.0/ambari.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo
2018-01-25 16:01:11 URL:http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.2.2.0/ambari.repo [287/287] -> " /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo" [1]
Once the repolist is added, you need to update the repolist which you have just added. Run the following command to complete this action.
[root@localhost ~]# yum repolist
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
Updates-ambari-2.2.2.0 | 2.9 kB 00:00:00
Updates-ambari-2.2.2.0/primary_db | 6.3 kB 00:00:00

extras/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Extras 329
updates/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Updates 1,720
repolist: 11,648
Once the above steps are completed, you need to install Ambari Server from the public Ambari repository.
[root@localhost ~]# yum install ambari-server

And then, run the setup command to configure your Ambari Server, Database, JDK, LDAP, and other options.

Next, to stop and disable the firewall, you need to run the following command.
