HA configuration is backward compatible and works with your existing single NameNode configuration.
The following instructions describe how to set up NameName HA on a manually-installed cluster. If you installed with Ambari and manage HDP on Ambari 2.0.0 or later, instead of the manual instructions use the Ambari documentation for the NameNode HA wizard.
