Description

improve the HostInfo.py (Host Check) during the ambari installer process, particularly for step 3 of the process where the nodes are registered and confirmed. In particular this JIRA will address the erroneous iptables check that currently always returns a value of 0 which indicates in the script that iptables is running and active, even when the iptables have actually been flushed. This results in an erroneous warning message.
