If you are running Ambari Metrics in your cluster, stop the service and put it in Maintenance Mode.

From Ambari Web, browse to Services > Ambari Metrics and select Stop from the Service Actions menu.

Stop the Ambari Server. On the host running Ambari Server:

ambari-server stop

Stop all Ambari Agents. On each host in your cluster running an Ambari Agent:

ambari-agent stop

Fetch the new Ambari repo and replace the old repository file with the new repository file on all hosts in your cluster.

	Important
	Check your current directory before you download the new repository file to make sure that there are no previous versions of the ambari.repo file. If you do not, and a previous version exists, the new download will be saved with a numeric extension, such as ambari.repo.1. Make sure that the version you copy is the new version.

Select the repository appropriate for your environment:

wget -nv https://username:password@archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0/ambari.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo

Upgrade Ambari Server. On the host running Ambari Server:

yum clean all

Before upgrading Ambari Server, you must update the username and password in the ambari.repo file. Run the following command: 

vi /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo

For example, the output displays the following:

#VERSION_NUMBER=2.7.5.0-72
[ambari-2.7.5.0]
#json.url = http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP/hdp_urlinfo.json
name=ambari Version - ambari-2.7.5.0
baseurl=https://username:password@archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://username:password@archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0/RPM-GPG-KEY/RPM-GPG-KEY-Jenkins
enabled=1
priority=1

yum info ambari-server

In the info output, visually validate that there is an available version containing "2.7"

yum upgrade ambari-server

Check for upgrade success by noting progress during the Ambari Server installation process you started in Step 8.

	Important
	Confirm there is only one ambari-server*.jar file in /usr/lib/ambari-server. If there is more than one JAR file with name ambari-server*.jar, move all JARs except ambari-server-2.7.5*.jar to /tmp before proceeding with upgrade.

Upgrade all Ambari Agents. On each host in your cluster running an Ambari Agent:

yum upgrade ambari-agent

Before upgrading Ambari Agent, you must update the username and password in the ambari.repo file. Run the following command: 

vi /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo

For example, the output displays the following:

#VERSION_NUMBER=2.7.5.0-72
[ambari-2.7.5.0]
#json.url = http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP/hdp_urlinfo.json
name=ambari Version - ambari-2.7.5.0
baseurl=https://username:password@archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://username:password@archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0/RPM-GPG-KEY/RPM-GPG-KEY-Jenkins
enabled=1
priority=1

After the upgrade process completes, check each host to make sure the new files have been installed:

rpm -qa | grep ambari-agent

Upgrade Ambari Server database schema. On the host running Ambari Server:

ambari-server upgrade

When the Ambari Server database schema has been upgraded, you should see command output like this:

Ambari Server ‘upgrade’ completed successfully

Start the Ambari Server. On the host running Ambari Server:

ambari-server start

Start all Ambari Agents. On each host in your cluster running an Ambari Agent:

ambari-agent start

Open Ambari Web.

Point your browser to the Ambari Web UI:

where <your.ambari.server> is the name of your ambari server host. For example, c7401.ambari.apache.org.

	Important
	Refresh your browser so that it loads the new version of the Ambari Web code. If you have problems, clear your browser cache manually, then restart Ambari Server.

Log in, using the Ambari administrator credentials that you have set up.

For example, the default name/password is admin/admin.

You will see a Restart indicator next to each service after upgrading. Ambari upgrade has added to/adjusted the configuration properties of your cluster based on new configuration types and properties being made available for each service with this release of Ambari. Review these changes by comparing the previous configuration with the latest version created by "ambari-upgrade".

	Important
	DO NOT RESTART these services unless future steps in the upgrade guide prompt you to do so. Manually restarting these services may significantly disrupt your upgrade. Ambari will restart each service automatically during the HDP upgrade.

	Note
	Even though the installer prompts you to sync ldap, doing so is not required.
