Hi, I'm interested in using Ambari + Ansible to manage a Kerberized cluster. The current contemplation is to use an Ansible module to make rest calls to the Ambari server in order to configure the nodes.
We would also like to be able to automatically set up HA and secure mode. We have scripts currently for setting up a primary and secondary KDC and issuing keytabs, so that is not a big deal, but I recall that the API currently has no official support for setting up secure mode or for deploying HA. Can we use the undocumented API's to do this successfully? How future proof is that approach? I noticed that there has been a lot of work on setting up a cluster KDC in version 2. Can any of the devs working on this suggest a good path forward to minimize rework after the next release?
