Can you provide some more information on your environment, such as: 1) Version of Ambari 2) Whether the environment is kerberized 3) Are you running the Ambari agent as root, or another user. 4) Any information from the ambari-agent.log file that might seen to indicate a problem 5) You said that restarting the agents resolves the issue. Does it continue to happen after restarting? If so, how long before new warnings start to show up.
I’m guessing you have a kerberized environment running Ambari 2.0. Ambari will use curl in this case to attempt to make a connection to the web endpoints. It uses the keytabs and principals defined on the alert definition. For NameNode, as an example, it would use: hdfs-site/dfs.web.authentication.kerberos.keytab hdfs-site/dfs.web.authentication.kerberos.principal You’ll want to verify that these properties are correctly set and that the keytab file is accessible to the agent user. It could also be a cache problem as the agents cache the kerberos credentials in the agent’s temp directory. How long it takes after alerts start producing warnings would in determining if it’s a caching issue.

According to the Ambari web User Interface, I have 11 alerts linked to the fact that all nodes (except the monitoring one) return HTTP 403 response for services such as NameNode web UI, DataNode web UI, or NodeManager Health. The first weird thing is the fact that I can easily see that the so-called Forbidden ports are actually quite available (via cURL for example) and indicate that the cluster is totally ok. The second is the fact that the 11 alerts magically disappear when rebooting the agent on the hosts related to the errors. Does anyone know where these errors might come from ?
