Install the Ambari agents manually on Ubuntu 16

Install an Ambari agent on each host in your cluster.

On every host in your cluster, use a command line editor to do the following steps.
  1. Install the Ambari Agent.
    apt-get install ambari-agent
  2. Configure the Ambari Agent by editing the ambari-agent.ini file as shown in the following:
    vi /etc/ambari-agent/conf/ambari-agent.ini
    [server]
    hostname=<your.ambari.server.hostname>
    url_port=8440
    secured_url_port=8441
  3. Start the agent on every host in your cluster.
    ambari-agent start
    The agent registers with the Server on start.
