?Can you provide example of some of the files?
In general Ambari runs as root unless configured with a custom user. Some of the files it manages may be created as the service user (say HDFS data directories are owned by HDFS service user). -Sumit ________________________________ From: Adaryl Wakefield <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2017 8:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: proper Ambari permissions When I'm working in Ambari, sometimes I can't manage files because whatever user I'm working under doesn't have permission. 1. What account does Ambari use when it is interacting with the various other programs? 2. How do I need to set my permissions so that when I'm in Ambari as admin, I'm able to create and blow away things at will?
