Hari Sekhon updated AMBARI-21337:
---------------------------------
Description:
Request to add global SMTP / SNMP settings which can be inherited by default by
each alert configuration (server, port, from address, auth creds, community
string).
I'm seeing a customer with several email 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.
