Hello everyone. The problem is coming from Ambari. There is a script here :
/usr/lib/ambari-server/lib/resource_management/libraries/functions/ranger_functions_v2.py /usr/lib/ambari-agent/lib/resource_management/libraries/functions/ranger_functions_v2.py At line 168, L168 : @safe_retry(times=*75*, sleep_time=*8*, backoff_factor=1, err_class=Fail, return_on_fail=None) So it is hardcoded in an ambari script for the moment. Note : there are as a script if the API is v1 : /usr/lib/ambari-server/lib/resource_management/libraries/functions/ranger_functions.py /usr/lib/ambari-agent/lib/resource_management/libraries/functions/ranger_functions.py So it is not at all a ranger problem, but an ambari problem ;-). Best regards. Lune.
