Got it. I was assuming that additional Ambari servers installed only for the purpose of running Views would somehow share state with what I was thinking the 'head' Ambari Server that is installed for cluster management. So it seems that each server will install PostgreSQL as a dep automatically and any credential configuration will need to be done per server.
