Description

The issue is that the following WEBHDFS rule

    <rule dir="OUT" name="WEBHDFS/webhdfs/outbound" pattern="hdfs://*:*/{path=**}?{**}">
        <rewrite template="{$frontend[url]}/webhdfs/v1/{path=**}?{**}"/>
    </rule>

All WEBHDFS rules are global for backwards compatibility, as a result this rule is rewriting links from AtlasUI.

There is no reason to rewrite hdfs:// to https://, at-least for other UIs so we need to limit the scope of this rule to local scope from global scope.

    <rule dir="OUT" scope="WEBHDFS" name="WEBHDFS/webhdfs/outbound" pattern="hdfs://*:*/{path=**}?{**}">
        <rewrite template="{$frontend[url]}/webhdfs/v1/{path=**}?{**}"/>
    </rule>
