I created a custom service with config files. How do I disable the Custom config section for that config file in Ambari?

I was told that to avoid users from being able to append custom configurations to a config file supports_adding_forbidden can be added to configuration tag like so:

<configuration supports_final="true" supports_adding_forbidden="true"> ... </configuration>

If i understand your question correctly, there is a drop down between default config and custom config. There's also an override toggle next to custom properties.

When you created a new service, was Custom config section created by default?

As per Cwiki we have to create the configs locally.
