This video I will explain how to add a new host to existing hadoop cluster which is running on HDP 3.0 We use Ambari's add host wizard to do this task.Before adding the host make sure all basic pre-requisites are in place such as disabling firewall ,disable transparent huge page ,change vm swappiness and update /etc/hosts files.

One pre-requisites are done we can add this new host to cluster by using Ambari.

Adding pre-requisites that I used on this installation

CentOS / RHEL7

1.Change the run level to multi user text mode

systemctl get-default&#x20;

systemctl set-default multi-user.target

2.Change the hostname&#x20;

hostnamectl set-hostname "hostname"&#x20;

hostnamectl set-hostname master1.hadoop.com&#x20;

3.Disable firewall

systemctl disable firewalld systemctl status firewalld

4.Change VM Swappiness to 10 Add "vm.swappiness = 10" to file /etc/sysctl.conf

5.Disable SE Linux /etc/selinux/config and change from enhanced to disabled sed -i 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/' /etc/selinux/config

6.Install and start NTP

yum yum -y install ntp&#x20;

systemctl enable ntpd&#x20;

systemctl start ntpd

7.Disable THP add these lines to /etc/rc.local&#x20;
