Ambari logs
Cloudbreak uses Ambari to orchestrate the installation of the different HDP/HDF components. Each instance in the cluster runs an Ambari agent which connects to the Ambari server. Ambari server is declared by the user during the cluster installation wizard.
Ambari server logs
Ambari server logs can be found on the nodes where Ambari server is installed in the following locations:
/var/log/ambari-server/ambari-server.log
/var/log/ambari-server/ambari-server.out
Both files contain important information about the root cause of a certain issue so it is advised to check both.
