Nahappan Somasundaram created AMBARI-18795:
----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ambari-server: Stack defintion to specify which services support credential store
                 Key: AMBARI-18795
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-18795
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2
            Reporter: Nahappan Somasundaram
            Assignee: Nahappan Somasundaram
             Fix For: 2.5.0


Services must be tagged to indicate whether they support credential store backed passwords. This also helps with backward compatibility.

If services support credential store, they will also be able to read clear text passwords. Services that do not support credential store will not be able to decrypt the passwords in the configurations. 

The server will send this information to the agent so that it can determine whether it should store clear text passwords in the configuration files or use JCEKS files.
