ambari restart and service restart updating krb5.conf file

[#1]

Hi Team,

I have configured kerberos and integrated it with our AD, also updated krb5.conf file with some additional details but when I restart ambari or services then krb5.conf getting change so any idea how I can prevent it not to update ?

Thanks in advance.

There is a setting in kerberos configuration where you can avoid managing krb5.conf from ambari (advanced krb5-conf in keberos section in ambari). Or you can update the template with whatever you want to add in krb5.conf.

@Ravi Mutyala Yes I saw that and forgot to mention but I wanted to know the impact if I would disable it ?

If you disable it, you need to manage krb5.conf on your own, either with puppet/chef or some other way. Ambari will not overwrite whatever is present in /etc/krb5.conf.
