@achintya-kumar Good questions.
Hope this answers your questions.
Thank you so much for your reply. It is crystal clear now. I have one additional question.
I am using Azure Free Tier for this assignment. I am allowed to use 4 cores per region. I have currently 2 machines, with 2 cores/16GB memory each. My initial plan was to go with the recommended size of the cluster, ie 5. However, because of the regional limit, I am limited to 2 machines as of now.
I am allowed to create new VM instances in other regions. My question is, is it possible by any way to have nodes in different regions and yet build a cluster out of them without increased complexity?
This should be possible, but a problem you can run into is the traffic between the regions. Normally traffic inside a datacenter is free, but in- and outbound traffic is not. Not sure if this can be a problem in the free tier. Do you can, by chance, increase the core restriction via a service request to the Azure team? I did this to increase the core limit on my MSDN subscriptions, but I'm not sure if that is possible in the free tier.
Thank you!
Upon requesting increment, they ask me to upgrade to 'Pay As You Go' tier. I suppose I should do it once I've everything working for my free-tier nodes.
You should stay in the free tier. Try to use different regions, but at first you should review in- and outbound traffic limitations. It could be that this isn't a problem at all.
Hi! Here is a report of two things I have learnt so far.
Below is a short review.

General feedback:
You're definitely on the right track, but details are important. Have a look at the open points above. The amount of documentation you wrote so far is pretty good and helps to understand where you went into the wrong direction.
Thank you for taking your time and giving me this detailed feedback. I shall rectify what's wrong here and get back to you.
Best Regards
Hi! I did this installation yesterday. Upon reaching CDH installation phase, despite my CM being of version 5.8.3, it doesn't let me have the same version of CDH with the note shown in the image above. This is the reason why I have CM 5.8.3 and CDH 5.8.4 in my installation as it doesn't let one choose.
Thanks! :)
That shouldn't be possible. You cannot manage a CDH version newer than your CM version. Don't know if that's also true for patch versions. Definitively for minor and major versions.
Did you install CM via an installer or YUM?
This was done using YUM.
I have gone through the documentation. The minor version of CM must be equal of the minor version of CDH. Nevertheless, you're working with the default parcel version of CM 5.8.3 which is the latest CDH 5.8.x version. Changing the default let's you install CDH 5.8.3. This link may be helpful.
Hi @HorizonNet and @tantalus1984 ! I have two doubts from the first task. Kindly help me understand the problem better.
Thank you in advance.
