?Do you see anything in yum.log or /var/log/messages that are related to this? Perhaps you can try verbose installation to see what the error is.

The OS version is the following: NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" VERSION="7.2 (Maipo)" ID="rhel" ID_LIKE="fedora" VERSION_ID="7.2" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.2 (Maipo)" First I've added the repository as mentioned into documentation by the command: sudo wget -nv http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.1.2.1/ambari.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo Then I've tried to install Ambari Server via yum: sudo yum install ambari-server with the following output: Yum tries to install the following Ambari release: ambari-server | x86_64 | 2.1.2.1-418 | Updates-ambari-2.1.2.1 I'm getting the following error: Downloading packages: ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64.rpm | 385 MB 00:00:08 Running transaction check Running transaction test Transaction test succeeded Running transaction Installing : ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 1/1 Error unpacking rpm package ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: mkdir Verifying : ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 1/1 Failed: ambari-server.x86_64 0:2.1.2.1-418 Complete! So I've tried to update the distro with: sudo yum update but I had the same result as the installation process via Yum So I had built the rpm package directly from source code but I'm getting the same error. The same procedures (installation from repo and from sources) works properly on a Centos 7.X and Centos 6.X. Has Someone have any idea about how to solve this problem? Thank you! Bests.
