Summary: Unable to use password type custom field to replace the value Key: AMBARI-24277 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-24277 Project: Ambari Issue Type: Bug Reporter: amarnath reddy pappu For Arcadia (any other service) added into Ambari and has the following requirement. There is some text area under "arcadia-visualization-server" configs and password is hard coded in that. Since everyone can view the password they would like to use custom properties with the type of "password" and then that as a variable in text area. this is not working. I try similar behavior with HDFS service .. 1. Add a custom config - hadoop_security_log_number_of_backup_files2 under "hdfs-log4j" with type as password. 2. Now under "Advanced hdfs-log4j" have modified the content to use above created variable. hadoop.security.logger=INFO,console hadoop.security.log.maxfilesize={{hadoop_security_log_max_backup_size}}MB hadoop.security.log.maxbackupindex=hadoop_security_log_number_of_backup_files2 3. Save and restart is not actually replacing the value with read value - instead it goes as empty. 4. Same behavior works fine with that variable is present in default config and type is text. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
