----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ambari-server: Stack definition Object Model changes to support tag changes
                 Key: AMBARI-18742
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-18742
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2
            Reporter: Nahappan Somasundaram
            Assignee: Nahappan Somasundaram
             Fix For: 2.5.0


Changes required in Stack object model to support the following stack definition changes:

To support backward compatibility, services must be tagged to indicate whether they support credential store backed passwords.

If services support credential store, they will also be able to read clear text passwords. Services that do not support credential store will not be able to decrypt the passwords in the configurations. 

The server will send this information to the agent so that it can determine whether it should store clear text passwords in the configuration files or use JCEKS files.
