2.2. Deploying a View

Deploying a View involves obtaining the View Package and making the View available to the Ambari Server. Each View deployed has a unique name. Multiple versions of a View can be deployed at the same time. You can configure multiple versions of a View for your users, depending on their roles, and deploy these versions at the same time.

Obtain the View package. For example, files-0.1.0.jar.
On the Ambari Server host, browse to the views directory.
cd /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/views
Copy the View package into place.
Restart Ambari Server.
ambari-server restart
The View is extracted, registered with Ambari, and displays in the Ambari Administration interface as available to create instances.

	Note
	`/var/lib/ambari-server/resources/views` is the default directory into which Views are deployed. You can change the default location by editing the `views.dir` property in `ambari.properties`.

For more information about building Views, see the Apache Ambari Wiki page.
