Mr Kuan Butts,
No still trying to solve the issues . I am still trying to solve the issue posted in the forum. I posted on main page, posted it here , and created a separate thread too.
I tried both versions suggested by Hortonworks on azure (i.e classic ,Resource manager) both having the same issues(so2o data storage error). I am still waiting . One moderator replied , asking for stacktrace i appended the info. But still waiting , if you know the solution please let me know.
