Description

The ambari-server start and ambari-server restart commands are currently hard coded to wait a maximum of 50 seconds for the Jetty server to bind to port 8080 (or whatever the configured port is).

Under normal circumstances, this value should be fine. However, since Jetty loads classes from views, the more views which are installed increases the total load time before Jetty binds to the server port.

ERROR: Exiting with exit code 1.
REASON: Server not yet listening on http port 8080 after 50 seconds. Exiting.

Although this a general problem with the architecture of Views, it's still valuable to have this startup property configurable.
