Rishi Pidva commented on AMBARI-8166:
-------------------------------------
[~rlevas], thanks! The screenshot helped. If I understand the proposed flow, it
is:
- User adds the connection details in UI.
- Browser/client talks to REST API on Ambari Server
- Ambari Server calls in to Agent on cluster host.
- Agent on each of cluster host goes and does the check.
- If any one fails, it reports it back to Server
- Server reports the status back to the client/browser.
Please correct me if I am missing anything.

> There needs to be a way, given the details about a KDC to verify that Ambari
> and (optionally) the nodes in the existing cluster can connect to it.
> From the cluster hosts, this test should test that the address and port
> combinations are reachable.
> From the Ambari server, this test should make sure the administrator
> credentials allow at least read access to the KDC.
> As an example of a similar action, see how Oozie does this for DB check pre
> install.
