-----------------------------------------
Summary: Ranger password properties incorrectly appear in exported
Blueprint
Key: AMBARI-11142
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-11142
Project: Ambari
Issue Type: Bug
Components: ambari-server
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: Robert Nettleton
Assignee: Robert Nettleton
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 2.1.0
When a Blueprint is exported from a running cluster, there are some
Ranger-related properties that appear in the Blueprint, even though these
fields are marked as having the "PASSWORD" type in the stack metadata.
This is due to the fact that these passwords are not marked as "required",
which is necessary for the Blueprints processor to remove the properties from
the exported Blueprint. The Ranger passwords are not marked as "required"
because they are only required when SSL is enabled. This represents a
"conditional password" that is only relevant when certain services are enabled.
This type of conditional field is not modelled in the stack definitions.
In the short-term, the Blueprints configuration processor should be modified in
order to filter out any Ranger password properties that fit this category.
