@Greenhorn Techie I used Ambari Blueprints, Node.js and deep-diff to compare the configurations for two different clusters. The blueprints were loaded into Node.js and deep-diff did a nice job of finding the true differences in the JSON objects. The HOSTGROUP definitions in the blueprints created a fair number of red herrings but the other diff objects were dead on. Assuming you can install Node.js, the deep-diff module and extract the blueprints (I know. A big assumption) you can use the following Node.js commands to generate a JSON file with the cluster differences. var myCallback = function(err) {
if(err) {
return console.log(err);
}
console.log("The file was saved.");
};
var diff = require('deep-diff').diff;
var bpa = require('/path/to/blueprints/blue-print-a.json');
var bpb = require('/path/to/blueprints/blue-print-b.json');
var difference = diff(bpa,bpb);
fs.writeFile('cluster-difference.json', JSON.stringify(difference, null, 99), myCallback);
