2.1. Getting Correct Configuration Values for Manually-Deployed Clusters

If you have manually deployed your cluster, you must enter cluster configuration values in the Hive View Create Instance page. The following table explains where you can find cluster configuration settings in Ambari.

Table 7.1. Finding Cluster Configuration Values for the Hive View in Ambari

Property	Value
Hive Authentication	`auth=NONE;user=${username}`
Scripts HDFS Directory*	`/user/${username}/hive/scripts`
Jobs HDFS Directory*	`/user/${username}/hive/jobs`
HiveServer2 Host*	Click Hive > Summary > HiveServer2 to view the host name. For example, `c6401.ambari.apache.org`
HiveServer2 Thrift port*	Click Hive > Configs > Advanced > General > HiveServer2 Port. For example, `10000`
WebHDFS FileSystem URI*	Click HDFS > Configs > Advanced > Advanced hdfs-site > dfs.namenode.http-address. When you enter the value in the view definition, pre-pend "webhdfs://" to the value you find in the advanced HDFS configuration settings. For example, `webhdfs://c6401.ambari.apache.org:50070`
YARN Application Timeline Server URL*	Click YARN > Configs > Advanced > Application Timeline Server > yarn.timeline-service.webapp.address. When you enter the value in the view definition, pre-pend "http://" to the value you find in the YARN advanced configuration settings. For example, `http://c6401.ambari.apache.org:8188`
YARN ResourceManager URL*	Click YARN > Configs > Advanced > Advanced yarn-site > yarn.resourcemanager.webapp.address. When you enter the value in the view definition, pre-pend "http://" to the value you find in the YARN advanced configuration settings. For example, `http://c6401.ambari.apache.org:8088`

For NameNode High Availability

The following values must be entered for primary and secondary NameNodes:

Table 7.2. Hive View Settings for NameNode High Availability

Property	Value
First NameNode RPC Address or Second NameNode RPC Address	Select the primary or secondary NameNode to view settings from that host in the cluster. See how to get the NameNode RPC address. When you enter the value in the view definition, pre-pend "http://" to the value you find in the advanced `hdfs-site` settings. For example, `http://c6401.ambari.apache.org:8020`
First NameNode HTTP (WebHDFS) Address or Second NameNode HTTP (WebHDFS) Address	Click HDFS > Configs > Advanced > Advanced hdfs-site > dfs.namenode.http-address. When you enter the value in the view definition, pre-pend "http://" to the value you find in the advanced `hdfs-site` settings. For example, `http://c6401.ambari.apache.org:50070`

To get First NameNode RPC Address values:

Navigate to the HDFS service page in Ambari that contains links to individual NameNodes. Click NameNode (primary) or SNameNode (secondary) to view the host page:

Figure 7.3. HDFS Service Page in Ambari
On the host page, click Configs > Advanced.
Enter "rpc" in the Filter search well at the top right corner of the page or navigate to the Advanced hdfs-site settings to find the dfs.namenode.rpc-address value that you can enter into the Hive View definition. Here is an example of using the Filter to locate a value:
