MapReduce service components should indicate security state

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      The MAPREDUCE2 service components should indicate security state when queried by Ambari Agent via STATUS_COMMAND. Each component should determine it's state as follows:

      HISTORYSERVER

      Indicators

      • Command JSON
        • config['configurations']['cluster-env']['security_enabled']
          • = “true”
      • Configuration File: params.hive_client_conf_dir + ‘mapred-site.xml’
        • mapreduce.jobhistory.principal
          • not empty
          • required
        • mapreduce.jobhistory.keytab
          • not empty
          • path exists and is readable
          • required
        • mapreduce.jobhistory.webapp.spnego-principal
          • not empty
          • required
        • mapreduce.jobhistory.webapp.spnego-keytab-file
          • not empty
          • path exists and is readable
          • required

      Pseudocode

      if indicators imply security is on and validate
          if kinit(mapreduce.jobhistory.principal) succeeds
              state = SECURED_KERBEROS
          else
              state = ERROR 
      else
          state = UNSECURED
      

      Note: Due to the cost of calling kinit results should be cached for a period of time before retrying. This may be an issue depending on the frequency of the heartbeat timeout.
