Hi Pradeep, Sorry about the delayed response. Between going to TLP and thanksgiving its been a slow week. There is no straightforward way to monitor a cluster that Ambari hasnt provisioned. There are definitely steps that you can use to migrate the cluster to an Ambari Cluster. I will update the wiki over the next couple of days to list down the steps on how to do it. Will update the mailing list as soon as I have a detailed wiki on this.
Hope that helps. thanks mahadev Mahadev Konar Hortonworks Inc. http://hortonworks.com/ On Tue, Nov 26, 2013 at 11:04 PM, Pradeep Gollakota <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I have an 18-node Hadoop cluster that is running in production with CDH4. > We're evaluating Cloudera Manager and Apache Ambari to not only provision > (new) machines but also to monitor existing services. > > Using Ambari, is there a way I can connect to my existing cluster just for > the purposes of monitoring?
