As i understood, most of the imported tables in the schema are empty, it basically a reason why Ambari not starting.

For what you should do, verify the backup data - does it contain more information than was imported (i.e. it is some import glitch) or the DB was not fully exported.

If DB is totally lost, could be deployed a test mirror cluster (a bit complex way and not guarantee anything):
- create a full mapping of services and components you have on each host
- create a test cluster with (ideally if you have blueprint for the broken cluster):
  - same host names,
  - services & components location per host
  - services user name, if custom were used
  - cluster name
    ....(add here anything what was customized on the cluster)...
  - same versions of the stack and Ambari
- apply same cluster configuration, like Kerberos, HDFS HA and so on (complexity depends on amount of services and their custom configuration/features used) - make a DB snapshot of deployed and configured test cluster and apply it to the production cluster with fixing after the host table with proper ip addresses
- fix any pop-up issue after

It is quite complex way, but in theory should not mess with the data on the cluster

You can reset Ambari and delete the contents of the database with

./ambari-server reset

But it will flatten your installation and effectively be like starting from the beginning, nothing is remembered. It's very destructive.

Hi,

my colleague has installed the Ambari + Hadoop stack on our servers. He used Postgresql 11 to store the information. Then I had to downgrade the Postgresql to 9.3.9. I have exported the ambari schema from 11 to 9.3.9. Since then Ambari stopped working even when we started Postgresql 11 again.

The current situation is that I can log in to Ambari and it shows an empty installation with Launch wizard. Hadoop is stopped and there are no manual scripts. The colleague is not available and I need to continue.

It is Ambari 2.6.2.2.

select * from host returns 3 rows

ambari=> select * from stack;
 stack_id | stack_name  |  stack_version
----------+-------------+-----------------
        1 | HDP         | 2.0.6
        2 | HDP         | 2.3.ECS
       16 | BigInsights | 4.2
(16 rows)

Tables groups, clusters are empty. Well, most of the tables are empty.

If the ambari schema is broken, is there any reasonable way to populate it again from the existing cluster? Or does it mean we have to remove all components and start the wizard from scratch?

Thank you

Leos
