Several people have asked this before but judging by the silence it seems nobody else here has tried it. If you ask a concrete question about the problems you're having you might be able to get help also from people who don't know Ambari.

Thanks for the quick response Magnus. when I am trying to create a cluster setup the master server is failing but the slaves are installing and running fine. Not sure why the master is failing I am trying to follow the below steps:

Not sure is it because of old version plugin ambari-elasticsearch-plugin(1.7.1).?

Thanks, DP

The plugin requires ES 1.7.1. Is that what you're running?
