I have found I can get a list of properties with their type here: http://host:8080/api/v1/stacks/HDP/versions/2.0.6/stackServices/?fields=configurations/StackConfigurations/type However, I also noticed there are some missing values: hive_database templeton.hive.properties hive_hostname hadoop.proxyuser.hive.groups hive_jdbc_connection_url hadoop_conf_dir hbase_tmp_dir yarn.scheduler.capacity.root.default.acl_administer_queue hive_jdbc_driver hadoop.proxyuser.hive.hosts oozie.service.HadoopAccessorService.jobTracker.whitelist hive_metastore_user_passwd fs_checkpoint_size apache_artifacts_download_url oozie.service.HadoopAccessorService.nameNode.whitelist dfs_exclude hive_database_type run_dir hadoop.proxyuser.oozie.groups smokeuser hadoop.proxyuser.hcat.hosts nagios_contact mapreduce.cluster.local.dir hregion_memstoreflushsize oozie_jdbc_connection_url hcat_conf_dir oozie_database yarn.nodemanager.aux-services.mapreduce.shuffle.class hadoop.proxyuser.oozie.hosts yarn.scheduler.capacity.resource-calculator oozie_jdbc_driver oozie_hostname hadoop.proxyuser.hcat.groups dfs.block.local-path-access.user java64_home gpl_artifacts_download_url oozie_database_type oozie_metastore_user_passwd user_group nagios_web_password hive_database_name Is there a way to programmatically know where these parameters should live, or that they even exist? Thanks, -Chris
