------------------------------------------

             Summary: Improvements to running Ambari Server as non-root
                 Key: AMBARI-2423
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-2423
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: controller
    Affects Versions: 1.2.5
            Reporter: Dmitry Lysnichenko
            Assignee: Dmitry Lysnichenko
             Fix For: 1.2.5


Improvements:
    - We should rename ambari.user property to ambari-server.user
    - For a user to change this user / group setting, I think we should provide a setup option because if they do change user / group, we also (probably) have to adjust directory and file permissions. And unless we document that (which we should do as well), they will likely just change the .user or .group property, then try to start server but server can't access what it might need.
    - Looks like user check is performed after property import when performing "ambari-server start" as non-custom user.
