             Summary: UserGroupInformation TGT renewer refreshTime should be 
based on getNextTgtRenewalTime
                 Key: HADOOP-15622
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15622
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Gabor Bota


 The calculation of nextRefresh in UserGroupInformation is currently based on:

{code:java}
nextRefresh = Math.max(getRefreshTime(tgt),
              now + kerberosMinSecondsBeforeRelogin);
{code}

Most of the time nextRefresh = getRefreshTime(tgt). If it is renewing exactly 
on refreshTime, and there are parallel operations using expired ticket. There 
is a time gap that some operations might not perform until the next tgt is 
obtained. Ideally, we want to keep service uninterrupted, therefore 
getNextTgtRenewalTime supposed to calculate the time a few minutes before 
Kerberos tgt expired to determine the nextRefresh time. It looks like we are 
not using getNextTgtRenewalTime method to calculate nextRefresh instead opt-in 
to use ticket expiration time as base line for nextRefresh. I think patch 2 
approach can create time gap then strain on KDC server when ticket can not be 
renewed. It would be better to calculate nextRefresh based on 
getNextTgtRenewalTime.
