Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-6632:
-------------------------------------

Yes this was intentional. The mr patch seemed like a hack and that's why we 
didn't commit it to trunk, and instead raised MAPREDUCE-1824 to discuss that... 
BTW, the problem which the mr patch attempted to address would be significantly 
less once we have HADOOP-6706 committed that does retries in case of failures 
due to the false replay attack detection by the rpc servers. MAPREDUCE-1824 
takes a low priority..

> We tested using the same Kerberos key for all datanodes in a HDFS cluster or 
> the same Kerberos key for all TaskTarckers in a MapRed cluster. But it 
> doesn't work. The reason is that when datanodes try to authenticate to the 
> namenode all at once, the Kerberos authenticators they send to the namenode 
> may have the same timestamp and will be rejected as replay requests. This 
> JIRA makes it possible to use a unique key for each service instance.
