Update the HDF Base URL

Adding the base URL tells Ambari where to look for the HDF repository. This step is necessary when you are using an existing Ambari instance, already managing an HDP cluster, to install and manage an HDF cluster.

1. From the Ambari menu, click the admin drop-down in the top right of your Ambari Dashboard view. Then select Manage Ambari.
2. From the Clusters view on the left, click Versions, and then click the HDP version link.
3. Configure the HDF Base URL to the base URL appropriate for your operating system. Find the HDF Base URLs in the HDF Release Notes.

   	Note
   	If HDF URL is not behind the paywall, then you must select the disableCredentialsAutocompleteForRepoUrls option on http://$AMBARI_SERVER:8080/#/experimental.

4. Click Save.
