[jira] [Created] (AMBARI-21465) Setting for comments to be required when saving configuration

Bjorn Olsen created AMBARI-21465:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Setting for comments to be required when saving configuration
                 Key: AMBARI-21465
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-21465
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ambari-server
            Reporter: Bjorn Olsen
            Priority: Minor


When configuration changes are saved to an Ambari-managed service, the Save Configuration dialog appears and asks "What did you change?". Currently a user does not need to populate any comment here, and the configuration can still be saved. 

It would be preferable to have a setting in Ambari to require a minimum length for this field. This would encourage Ambari users to populate meaningful comments when changing service configurations, which makes the configuration version history easier to understand. This is especially useful in multi-user or production environments.
