[jira] [Created] (AMBARI-3554) Host cleanup commands should allow silent execution

Sumit Mohanty created AMBARI-3554:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Host cleanup commands should allow silent execution
                 Key: AMBARI-3554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-3554
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: controller
    Affects Versions: 1.4.2
            Reporter: Sumit Mohanty
            Assignee: Sumit Mohanty
             Fix For: 1.4.2


Ambari need to add a silent option to the cleanup script. In a typical dev/test cluster it might be OK to delete all resources. However, in a prod cluster users need to be careful before deleting the resources such as users, folders, etc.

It is likely for someone to inadvertently copy-paste the command from the UI without going through the help option. So we need to carefully decide what is suggested in the UI.The most conservative option (e.g. do not delete users) with some help text is ideal.

Possible UI text:
{code}
python /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ambari_agent/HostCleanup.py  -k "users"
    To delete all resources, ignore option -k. Use "-s" for silent cleanup. 
{code}
