             Summary: Change restart_required from BOOLEAN to SMALLINT
                 Key: AMBARI-6202
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-6202
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Task
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Jonathan Hurley
            Assignee: Jonathan Hurley
             Fix For: 1.6.1


We avoid the use of the "boolean" data type in our databases since many vendors 
do not support it and sometimes the behavior can be unpredictable in JPA.

We should aim to be consistent in our approach to databases, and that means 
that we should continue to treat 0/1 fields like restart_required as a SMALLINT 
in Postgres, even though newer version of that database do support BOOLEAN 
fields.
