Jaimin D Jetly commented on AMBARI-2487:
----------------------------------------
Yes. Right now Web-ui sends globals that are required by it to categorize and
organize data. Agent doesn't need it. We shouldn't be adding those in global.
Kerberos_domain, hbase_primary_name cane be parsed from config properties. so
we shouldn't send them and agent should parse it form config properties rather
than relying on global.
The list of globals mentioned above which will be saved cannot be retrieved
from config properties and so we need to communicate this to agent via global
parameters.
> Security wizard: Minimize usage of globals.

> * Resolution of this ticket includes reducing agent's dependency on global.
> Wherever possible retrieve information from site properties rather then
> global on agent end.
> * Resolution should also make web-ui to save only those set of secure global
> properties that are essentially required by agent via user input.
