The steps you have are correct to delete any host.
What is the internal server error that you see? If possible, can you export Ambari database after server reports error. You can send the db dump directly to me as Apache server may not deliver the message with attachment or large attachments. ________________________________ From: Kartik Mathur <kar...@bluedata.com> Sent: Friday, September 16, 2016 3:26 PM To: Sumit Mohanty; user@ambari.apache.org Subject: Re: Unable to delete host from ambari using API (HDP2.4 with Ambari 2.2) Hi Sumit, I don't see the host anymore but my delete never succeeded . This is the third host I tried deleting form the same cluster , I don't see any of the hosts for which my delete api calls failed however in ambari server logs I still get exception for first host that I tried to delete. To give you a background , I am working on a python script to ingrate with our product which decommissions and delete a host. Broadly these are the steps I try to follow - 1) decommission data node 2) stop all services running on the host 3) delete all host components uptill this point everything is fine 4) stop ambari agent on the host to be deleted 5) issue delete for the host I am unable to do step 5 , it gives me internal server error and then some random things on ambari UI where sometimes I see that host and sometimes not. I tried trying the same after restarting ambari server . Am I missing something ? I try again on a new cluster , if you thing cluster is in a messy state right now.

My host has these services running - 1) Zookeeper_server 2)DATANODE 3)NODEMANAGER 4)RegionServer 5)FLUME 1) I first decommision data and node manager using this - curl -u admin:admin -i -H 'X-Requested-By: ambari' -X POST -d '{ "RequestInfo":{ "context":"Decommission DataNode", "command":"DECOMMISSION", "parameters":{ "slave_type":"DATANODE", "excluded_hosts":"bluedata-69.bdlocal" }, "operation_level":{ "level":"HOST_COMPONENT", "cluster_name":"h2" } }, "Requests/resource_filters":[ { "service_name":"HDFS", "component_name":"NAMENODE" } ] }' http://10.35.229.2:8080/api/v1/clusters/h2/requests 2)Next I stop and delete all components (listed above, which I am successfully able to) 3) Strange thing happens after this - There is a random behavior on ambari UI where we sometimes see this host and sometimes not , besides now if I try to delete host from ambari API it gives me server error and tells host does not exist!! , however I can still go on UI and delete the host. All I wanted to do is decommision data node and delete a host in a clean way using ambari APIs , please assist Thanks Kartik
