ambari + log.retention.hours

mike_bronson7 — Mon, 17 Dec 2018 19:45:37 GMT

hi all

log.retention.hours in kafka config is in hours

when I set it to small value as 0.5h , and then restart the kafka service

kafka service failed , seems because ambari not support this small value

so , is it possible any way to by-pass this limitation ? and set the log.retention.hours for example to 30m ?

Hi @Michael Bronson,

Can you update the exact log exception in the operation log which blocked the start of Kafka service via ambari?

If the value cannot be set via UI , please see setting via command line helps

/var/lib/ambari-server/resources/scripts/configs.py -l <AMBARI_HOSTNAME> -t 8080 -u <USER_NAME> -p <PASSWORD> -a <GET/SET/DELETE>  -n <CLUSTER_NAME> -c <CONFIG_TYPE> -k <KEY> -v <VALUE>

but if from ambari we cant set it to 30m , then why API should work? from my understanding the value should set in XML , so what is the diffrences here ?
