1. Configuring Your Cluster for Files View

Configuring HDFS for Files View

You need to set up an HDFS proxy user for the Ambari daemon account. For example, if ambari-server daemon is runnng as root, you set up a proxy user for root in core-site by adding and changing properties in HDFS > Configs > Custom core-site:

hadoop.proxyuser.root.groups=*

hadoop.proxyuser.root.hosts=*

Restart the required components as indicated by Ambari. If you want to add multiple views, you can restart services once, after making changes for all views.
