On Oracle Big Data Appliance(BDA) trying to restart some/All of the CDH services(Yarn, Hue, Hive ..etc) in Cloudera Manager fail with below error

Command failed to start: com.cloudera.cmf.service.DaemonRoleHandler$ProcessSupplierException: com.cloudera.cmf.service.config.ConfigGenException: Unable to parse XML safety valve

There are NO manual configuration changes made for any of the CDH services failing to start. But error seems to be on the following safety valve parameters:

  1. JobHistory Server Default Group / Advanced JobHistory Server Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for mapred-site.xml
  2. NodeManager Default Group / Advanced NodeManager Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for yarn-site.xml
  3. Oozie Server Default Group / Advanced Oozie Server Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for oozie-site.xml
  4. Service-Wide / Advanced Hive Service Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for hive-site.xml
  5. Gateway Default Group / Advanced Hive Client Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for hive-site.xml

If the safety valve parameters are removed in an attempt to remove the syntax error neither the hdfs service nor yarn service comes up. The errors are:

1. For the hdfs service
