      Description

      History:
      See Attached Architecture Diagram.
      Cloudera 4.6 Enterprise is installed, configured and running currently without High Availability. No Health Issues logged.

      Issue:
      Trying to Enable High Availability and make the secondary master node to be the Standby Node. (as in the attachement).

      While in the Cloudera Manager gui, I clicked on
      Services --> HDFS1 --> Actions --> Enable High Availability

      It gets to Step 11 of 17 and then it just spins.
      It looked like the 2 master nodes went into Standby Mode and just sits.

      I attached snips of the screenshots and 2 logs on the secondary master node trying to start:

      ../cloudera-scm-agent.log
      ../hadoop-hdfs/hadoop-cmf-hdfs1-NAMENODE-qps06au.vsp.sas.com.log.out

      I am under the impression that the CM gui updates all the conf files (xml, etc.) behind the scenes as I click through the wizard, but IF there are manual steps and other files or connection tests that I need to be aware of please update me.

      Regards,
      Steve
