             Summary: Add Visibility Attributes to Services
                 Key: AMBARI-7469
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-7469
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Epic
          Components: ambari-web, stacks
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
            Reporter: Robert Levas
             Fix For: 2.0.0


*Problem*
In a stack there may be one or more services that should not be installable, configurable, or managed via the Ambari web-based interface.  Such a service may need to be installed via some Ambari API call or manually. There is no way to specify these “visibility” attributes within a service’s definition; thus to “hide” a service, one-off code needs to be added to the different Ambari facilities.

*Solution*
Add visibility attributes to service definitions to describe how Ambari should expose services via front-end facilities.   The following Boolean attributes should be settable by services:
* installable
** indicates if Ambari can install the service - if not installable, the service should be hidden from “add service” features of Ambari
* managed
** indicates if Ambari can start and stop the service - if not managed, the service should be hidden from all views where management operations can occur
* monitored
** indicates if Ambari can monitor the service - if not monitored, status information should not be displayed
