Description

Heterogenous storage specification for dfs.data.dir introduced in Ambari 1.7.0 is no longer working.

STR:
Go to HDFS > Configs
Prepend the content of "DataNode directories" with "[SSD]" so that it looks like:

[SSD]/grid/0/hadoop/hdfs/data

An error is shown ("must be a slash or drive")
