---------------------------------------
Summary: Change restart_required from BOOLEAN to SMALLINT
Key: AMBARI-6099
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-6099
Project: Ambari
Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Reporter: Jonathan Hurley
Priority: Minor
We avoid the use of the "boolean" data type in our databases since many vendors
do not support it and sometimes the behavior can be unpredictable in JPA.
BUG-18772 addresses and issue where the Postgres upgrade to schema 1.6.0 was
failing because Postgres can not convert a SMALLINT to a boolean.
We should aim to be consistent in our approach to databases, and that means
that we should continue to treat 0/1 fields like restart_required as a SMALLINT
in Postgres, even though newer version of that database do support BOOLEAN
fields.
