Where to change AMS account name in Ambari 2.1

[#1]

We have upgraded to Ambari 2.1.1 and we cannot find where to override the new AMS account name. All of our Service Accounts are defined in AD and we must follow an internal naming convention.

Can someone point us where and how to change the AMS account name?

Thanks,

You should be able to change ams user by using the configs.sh script.

cd /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/scripts/

./configs.sh set localhost bp ams-env ambari_metrics_user new_ams_user

There's a field called "Ambari Metrics User" under "Advanced ams-env".

See the screenshot.
