This process prepares the updated repository.
Check to see if you have a
conf.save
directory for Ambari server and agents. If you do, move them to a back-up location:mv /etc/ambari-server/conf.save/ /etc/ambari-server/conf.save.bak
mv /etc/ambari-agent/conf.save/ /etc/ambari-agent/conf.save.bak
Get the new Ambari bits. Use
wget
to fetch the repository file and replace the old repo file with the new repo file on every host.Important Check your current directory before you download the new repo file to make sure that there are no previous versions of the file. If you do not, and a previous version exists, the new download is saved with a numeric extension such as
ambari.repo.1
. Make sure that the version you copy is the new version.For RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux 5
