---------------------------------------

             Summary: replace `Can't get Master Kerberos principal` message 
with useful information about principal and configuration item
                 Key: HADOOP-13808
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13808
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Steve Loughran


Clients get the `Can't get Master Kerberos principal` error message when their 
config doesn't identify the principal for a service.

This message is fairly useless as

# it doesn't identify the service for which a principal is sought
# it doesn't identify the configuration property looked for
# it doesn't provide any guidance of how to fix it

As a result, anyone seeing this doesn't have a clue what to do.

I propose
#  naming the principal sought, e.g. "namenode", "YARN RM"
# naming the configuration item looked for
# adding a link to a wiki page covering the problem

KDiag should scan through the common set of principals if it doesn't already
