Description

When adding new nodes to an existing cluster that has outbound internet access yum install ambari-agent will grab the latest version of the agent causing registration to fail. The example is I have a 1.2 Ambari cluster, but 1.4 is the latest version. yum -y install ambari-agent will grab 1.4 instead of the cluster version 1.2. We just need to specify ambari-agent-1.2.
Workaround is to have users manually install agents with the right version.
