Hari Sekhon updated AMBARI-21337:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Request to add global SMTP settings which can be inherited by default by each 
alert configuration (server, port, from, auth creds).

I'm seeing a customer with several alert configurations going to different 
places and each one has the same SMTP details duplicated in each alert 
notification which is redundant and will require changing in multiple places at 
some point. Keeping the ability to override the settings for each alert 
notification configuration is useful but it makes sense to have a single point 
to configure the shared SMTP settings if they're not different.

The same thing applies to SNMP host, port and community string as they're most 
likely going to be the same across different alert configurations.
