Follow the steps below to upgrade the Ambari version.
Stop the Infra-solr Service from Ambari-UI.
Info
Take the backup of ambari-server configs.
/etc/ambari-server/conf/
Stop Ambari-agent on every cluster node.
Take the ambari-server backend database backup from the server host.
mkdir /tmp/ambari-server_db_bckp
mysqldump --databases ambari > /tmp/ambari-server_db_bckp/ambari_mysql_bckp.sql
Run the following command:
mv /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo /tmp/
Retrieve the latest Ambari repository details from Accessing Acceldata Repositories and add it to all cluster nodes.
On RHEL:
On Ubuntu:
Example Output (if the current Ambari version is 3.0.0.0-1):
ambari-infra-solr-3.0.0.0-1.noarch
ambari-agent-3.0.0.0-1.x86_64
ambari-server-3.0.0.0-1.x86_64
ambari-infra-solr-client-3.0.0.0-1.noarch
From the Ambari Server node, remove the installed packages before upgrading:

On Ubuntu:
Make sure the Amabri packages are not installed.
Info
If you are upgrading from any Python 2 based ODP version, make sure to perform the below additional steps to install Python 3.11 and its dependencies on all the hosts before proceeding with the next step.
For Ubuntu 20/22:
apt install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
apt update
apt-get install python3.11
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
/usr/bin/python3.11 get-pip.py
pip3.11 install distro lxml rpm
For RHEL 8:
yum install python3.11 python3.11-pip
pip3.11 install distro lxml rpm
Install the latest Ambari-server only on ambari-server node.
On RHEL:
yum clean all
yum install ambari-server -y
On Ubuntu:
apt clean
apt update
apt install ambari-server -y
Info
If you are upgrading from ODP version 3.3.6.3-1 or later to ODP version 3.3.6.4-1, you can skip the Java 17 and Ambari Server upgrade steps, as they are already included in the source version and do not require any additional action.
Make sure to install and update the default Java version as 17 on all the cluster nodes.
For RHEL:
yum install java-17-openjdk.x86_64 -y
yum install java-17-openjdk-devel.x86_64 -y
For Ubuntu:
apt-get install openjdk-17-jdk openjdk-17-jdk-headless -y
Warning
Ensure not to remove the jdk8 packages at this state.

Make sure to Instal the latest version of the bigtop-jsvc-1.2.4 on all the cluster nodes.
For RHEL:
yum install bigtop-jsvc* -y
For Ubuntu:
apt install bigtop-jsvc -y
Restore the ambari.properties and password.dat files, which are backed up at this step: Configuration Backup on this page.
cp /etc/ambari-server/conf_bkp/ambari.properties /etc/ambari-server/conf/
Please override the file by prompting 'y'.
cp /etc/ambari-server/conf_bkp/password.dat /etc/ambari-server/conf/

Enter 'y' to confirm.
After the successful completion, you must see the following message.

Once started, verify that the Ambari UI is accessible using the same URL as before.
Verify the upgraded Ambari version in admin->about on the top right corner in Ambari UI.
The Ambari version is upgraded successfully.
During the migration, the existing GROUPS table in the Ambari database might cause conflicts due to its name. As a result, the Ambari UI might fail to start and throw the following error when attempting to log in.
Internal Exception: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: Table 'ambari.groups_info' doesn't exist
Error Code: 1146
Call: SELECT group_id, group_name, group_type, ldap_group, principal_id FROM groups_info WHERE (group_id = ?)

Query: ReadObjectQuery(name="group" referenceClass=GroupEntity )
To resolve this issue, rename the GROUPS table to groups_info in the Ambari backend database.
Log in to the MySQL server hosting the Ambari database.

Rename the table groups to groups_info using the following command.
mysql> RENAME TABLE `groups` TO groups_info;
Verify the same data as it was in groups table earlier. It must have the same data as it was earlier in groups table.
mysql> select * from groups_info;
Log into the Oracle server hosting the Ambari database.
