[GitHub] metron issue #1207: METRON-1695: Expose pcap properties through Ambari

Github user anandsubbu commented on the issue:

    https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1207
  
    @MohanDV , as a part of my commit, I have moved all the UI related elements from REST to the PCAP config tab. 
    
    In my understanding, the following parameters are not directly related to the PCAP core service, but are functionally related to REST (used by the PCAP query panel UI):
    * pdml.script.path
    * base.path
    * base.interim.result.path
    * final.output.path
    * page.size
    * yarn.queue
    * finalizer.threadpool.size
    
    For this reason, I did not move these properties out of the rest_application.yml.

    With my current changes, modifying any config setting in the PCAP tab will require restarting both Metron PCAP and Metron REST services--which is necessary since user can change a PCAP-service related property or a PCAP-REST related property (or both). The converse, which you noted, i.e. changing any REST config does not require restarting the PCAP topology. Here's a screenshot after making changes to REST config...
