Sergey Shelukhin updated HADOOP-13081:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-13081.patch
> add the ability to create multiple UGIs/subjects from one kerberos login
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-13081

>
> We have a scenario where we log in with kerberos as a certain user for some
> tasks, but also want to add tokens to the resulting UGI that would be
> specific to each task. We don't want to authenticate with kerberos for every
> task.
> I am not sure how this can be accomplished with the existing UGI interface.
> Perhaps some clone method would be helpful, similar to createProxyUser minus
> the proxy stuff; or it could just relogin anew from ticket cache.
> getUGIFromTicketCache seems like the best option in existing code, but there
> doesn't appear to be a consistent way of handling ticket cache location - the
> above method, that I only see called in test, is using a config setting that
> is not used anywhere else, and the env variable for the location that is used
> in the main ticket cache related methods is not set uniformly on all paths -
> therefore, trying to find the correct ticket cache and passing it via the
> config setting to getUGIFromTicketCache seems even hackier than doing the
> clone via reflection ;) Moreover, getUGIFromTicketCache ignores the user
> parameter on the main path - it logs a warning for multiple principals and
> then logs in with first available.
