> We use a custom service in our Ambari instance that comprises only of client components (i.e. no daemons).
> We used to control its reconfiguration by:
> 1. Stopping the service by changing the service state to {{INSTALLED}}
> 2. Changing the cluster configuration with a {{PUT}} in e.g. {{http://localhost:8080/api/v1/clusters/mycluster}} with the following body:
> {code:javascript}
>   {
>     "Clusters": {
>       "desired_configs": {
>         "type": "your_custom_service_type",
>         "tag": "your_new_version",
>         "properties": { }# properties here
>       }
>     }
>   }
> {code}
> 3. "Starting" the service by changed the state to {{STARTED}}. Even though the service would always remain in {{INSTALLED}} state (as being with client-only components) it had the effect of applying the changed configuration.
> We've recently synced our Ambari version with the latest from trunk and we no longer see that behaviour (the configuration is not applied).
> After some debugging on the Ambari side, the behaviour change comes from {{AmbariManagementControllerImpl.addClientSchForReinstall(...)}}
> The latest version of the method's signature has had the {{changedServices}} parameter removed and only relies on the {{changedScHosts}} parameter to proceed with installing client components.
> In this scenario, it is precisely {{changedServices}} that registers a change while {{changedScHosts}} remains empty, probably explaining why the client components are never re-installed.
> The way we solved it was to reintroduce the {{changedServices}} parameter and the code fragment that handled it.
> A patch is provided with the fix.
