In this article , We will learn how to install Apache Knox and also how to configure it.
Please follow below steps after logging into the Ambari to install Apache Knox .
1) Click on add service.
In the left side services area , Click on actions and click on Add service option to add new service to the Hadoop cluster.
The picture below show Add service option.
2) Choose service.
Once you click on the Add service, new popup will be opened to show list of services those can be installed using Apache Ambari. Select Knox and hit Next button.

2) Assign Masters
Apache Knox has a master daemon called Knox gateway . We need to choose a host to install Knox gateway in this step. After selecting the host , click next.
The picture below shows secured01 host is selected to install Knox gateway.
3) Assign Slaves and clients
Apache Knox does not have any slave daemons and clients so Ambari automatically skips this step.
4) Customize the services
This is one of the important steps in adding new service to the cluster. In this step , We can modify default property values.
We need to enter master secret to continue installation of the Knox.
And also confirm the master secret re-entering again. Click Next after entering the master secret.
5) Configure the identities
This step is also one of the important steps. We need to configure Kerberos principals and keytabs in this step. By default , Ambari suggests principals and keytabs , We can go with them.
If you are not modifying the default configs , just hit next.
The picture below shows Configure identities step.
Once you click Next, Amabri will ask for Kerberos admin principal name and password.
The picture below show the popup to enter kerberos admin credentials.
Admin ACLs are mentioned in the file /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl
If no Kerberos installed on the cluster , This step will be skipped by Ambari automatically.
6) Review

Click complete to finish Knox installation.
9) Check new service
