Hi Christopher, Ambari does not support installation of clients. The dependency, for now, only ensures that they are installed on the same host.
Lets open a JIRA. Its easy to implement an install order as well - basically call the same helper method as done for START. thanks Sumit ________________________________________ From: Christopher Jackson <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2015 8:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Client components install order. Hi all, Is it possible to ensure clients are installed in a certain order? I have written a custom service with a CLIENT component which lists HDFS_CLIENT and HBASE_CLIENT as dependencies (scope: host). As part of my client install I add some libraries to HDFS and HBASE so I need for those clients to be installed before my client. I would think listing them as a dependency would achieve this, but it does not in Ambari 2.0.0. How is client install order determined? How can I ensure my custom client is installed after a particular client? Regards, Christopher Jackson
