Sorry, you’ve beat me.

Mike, what have you found in full-dev?  Does ES work correctly there?

Yes, I'm saving the changes. The orange bar pops up saying I have to restart 
elasticsearch, which I do. I'm logged in with the admin user, it has privileges 
to do everything else. I'm using a bare metal install via Ambari. Everything 
else seems to work through Ambari except this :)

That it doesn't work in Ambari, at least to the point of writing thru to the 
config file (whether or not it actually works with ES), is quite mystifying.  
Silly question, but, are you pressing the "Save" button after changing the 
field?  Are you perhaps not logged into Ambari with an ambari user id that has 
privs to change this config?  Did you use non-default user configuration with 
Ambari, and if so are you running with an admin-priv ambari account?

See inline.
Now, Laurens, two question for you:   First, please confirm: Are you setting 
the value of masters_also_are_datanodes via the masters_also_are_datanodes 
field in the Ambari configuration GUI?  Or directly editing files?
I'm using Ambari to edit the configuration. However, I have to manually edit 
the file locally as the Ambari configuration doesn't work.
Second, do you set it at the initial install time, or afterward?  I'm pretty 
sure it needs to be set at initial install time, before you ever launch the 
Elasticsearch nodes.  I'm dubious about whether an Elasticsearch master can 
learn to be a datanode if it first wakes up and configures itself to not be 
one.  But I'm not an Elasticsearch expert, so if someone else knows different, 
please say so.
In this case, I forgot to set it initially, so I tried to change it afterwards 
to no avail.
Hope this helps more than obfuscates.
--Matt

At the very least, the value provided by default seems to have changed to a "1" 
instead of "true" without the tooltip having been updated to match.
Error! Filename not specified.

I think this is our default setup for full dev. It's only a 1-node VM, so I'm 
pretty sure that it would not work otherwise. I'm spinning up full dev now and 
will look into it also.

I'll also spin up a full-dev environment and see what happens there.

Laurens, please open a jira.  Altho it may seem obvious, please
include full repro.
This may be a showstopper, as it presumably (?) prevents ES from
working on a single-node deployment?

    Another issue I noticed. Setting "masters_also_are_datanodes" in Ambari
    to "true" does not work.
    The settings in /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml will always be
    false when restarting elasticsearch...
