Customizing Ambari Agent Log + PID Directories

To modify the Ambari Agent Log and PID locations:

Steps

On each host running an Ambari Agent, stop the Ambari Agent:
```
ambari-agent stop
```

Edit the Ambari Agent properties file:

vi /etc/ambari-agent/conf/ambari-agent.ini

In the [agent] section, modify the piddir and logdir properties:
[agent]
logdir=/var/log/ambari-agent
piddir=/var/run/ambari-agent
Save the file.
Create the new directories and be sure to set the directory ownership and permissions to allow the Ambari Agent process access.
Restart the Ambari Agent.
```
ambari-agent start
```
