Yes the default that Ambari sets in most cases should just work, not sure about the move part, usually configs are cluster specific so cannot know for sure unless diving deeper.
The wiki has some useful info that you could take a look at: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Troubleshooting+Guide https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Known+Issues https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Configuration​ - Sid ________________________________ From: David Quiroga <quirogadf4w...@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 8, 2018 9:46 PM To: user@ambari.apache.org Subject: Re: metrics can not work as expected In most cases Ambari Metrics runs separate HBase and Zookeeper instances. The default ports of Ambari Metrics Zookeeper are typically in the 60,000 range. Would expect the Ambari defaults to do the trick, which I suspect relates to Sid's question.

I tested installation on my vbox, it works well, then i move it to a server which run many services. When install, it failed at check service status.

The 2188 port is my setting about zookeeper, and from web UI, its status is OK. Also i check zookeeper process, it runs as usual. By the way, metrics needs listen 6188 port, but i use `netstat` to check, related processes do not start. I do not know how to fix it, could someone help me? Thanks
