Just a caution note:-

When you are trying to set "server.jdbc.properties.loglevel=2", it adds additional database query logging and it should be enabled only when we troubleshoot performance issues.

Advise to remove this property once the troubleshooting is over. We have seen 2x to 3x Ambari performance degradation when it is enabled.
