When your command runs, it will show up in the UI as something like "command-123.json". You'll match this up to the "output" file on the agent: /var/lib/ambari-agent/data/output-123.txt
You're not printing the value of dummy_master_pid_file in your example below; you'll want to print that as well to make sure it's rendering properly. Are you sure you have the directories correct? You're trying to use zoo/dataDir as the placeholder which renders to "/usr/share/zookeeper/tmp". You'll need to make sure that your "zoo" config has dataDir set to /usr/share/zookeeper/tmp On Apr 18, 2016, at 9:44 AM, Souvik Sarkhel <souvik.sark...@gmail.com<mailto:souvik.sark...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi Jonathan, Earlier I was using from resource_management import * now I have added this import statement also from resource_management.libraries.functions.format import format and also given 777 permission till the intended pid file. Still its not working. Can you please tell me from where can I see the print statements which I provide in status function so that I can debug the function.

The "format" function provided by Ambari's common library has a naming conflict with a default python function named "format". If you don't import the right one, your format("...") command will fail silently. Make sure you are importing: from resource_management.libraries.functions.format import format On Apr 18, 2016, at 4:27 AM, Souvik Sarkhel <souvik.sark...@gmail.com<mailto:souvik.sark...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi All, I have created a custom service for Zookeeper and using Ambari 2.1.0 .In status function of master.py if its defined in this way: def status(self, env): config = Script.get_config() zkDataDir = config['configurations']['zoo']['dataDir'] print 'Status of the Zookeeper Master' print ***************************************** print zkDataDir dummy_master_pid_file = format("{zkDataDir}/zookeeper_server.pid") check_process_status(dummy_master_pid_file) Ambari is always showing status of application stopped but when I provide the constant path of the pid file for example: dummy_master_pid_file = "/usr/share/zookeeper/tmp/zookeeper_server.pid") it starts working perfectly and Ambari is able to correctly show the status of the application. I need a variable pid file instead of a constant one. I would to thankful if someone suggest me a way out. Thanking you in advance -- Souvik Sarkhel
