Description

There are 2 issues

1. if a user modifies the "zeppelin_log_dir" parameter to a directory which is not present e.g. from /var/log to /tmp/log , save the configuration and restarts the service ,"Restart Zeppelin Notebook" Operation fails with error

       provider_action()
     File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/resource_management/core/providers/system.py", line 189, in action_create
       raise Fail("Applying %s failed, parent directory %s doesn't exist" % (self.resource, dirname))
   resource_management.core.exceptions.Fail: Applying Directory['/tmp/log/zeppelin'] failed, parent directory /tmp/log doesn't exist
   

   This is not sync with other services, For eg if one modifies the log directory for Hive Service from /var/log/hive to /tmp/log/hive. and restarts the service,. The Hive Service restarts successfully

1. The second issue is even if the service restart fails the service status shown is GREEN and not RED
