Can a CSD role have a node role dependency?

[#1]

I think this is really a feature request... I already have this:

    "serviceDependencies" : [
        {
            "name" : "YARN",
            "required" : "true"
        },
        {
            "name" : "ZOOKEEPER",
            "required" : "true"
        }
    ],

What I'd really like is something like:

    "roles" : [
        {
            "name" : "MY_ROLE",
            "label" : "My Example Role",
            "pluralLabel" : "My Example Roles",
            "roleDependencies" : [
                {
                    "name" : "NODEMANAGER",
                    "required" : "true"
                }
            ],

i.e. my role can only be started on nodes that are running this roleDependency.

Hi,

This is not currently supported.

We'll be adding placementRules in CM 5.5 that will allow you to specify that a role must be placed with another role, but it only lets you specify roles in the same service.

We're aware of interest in requiring a role to be co-located with a role in a different service, and will keep that in mind for a future release.

Thanks,
Darren

Hi,
Are there any latest updates on this for CM 6.x and/or 7.x?
