Zhe Zhang commented on HADOOP-13206:
------------------------------------

Thanks much for the suggestion [~cnauroth].

Although in our case the issue happened with 2.6 and 2.3 clients, now I think 
it can happen with the same version of client for 2 reasons. Let's assume there 
are client {{A}}, which fetches tokens, and client {{B}}, which uses tokens.
# Client {{A}} and client {{B}} could use different values of 
{{hadoop.security.token.service.use_ip}}. Should we treat this as a 
mis-configuration and enforce the same value across any entire production 
environment?
# Client {{A}}, when fetching the token, could use numerical IP address to 
refer to the NameNode, such as {{webhdfs://123.45.67.89:50070}}. Client {{B}}, 
when using the token, could use a logical URI {{webhdfs://clusterNN}}.

Good point about DNS overhead. How about we update the patch and only do the 
newly added check if one URI is logical and the other is not?

> Delegation token cannot be fetched and used by different versions of client

> We have observed that an HDFS delegation token fetched by a 2.3.0 client 
> cannot be used by a 2.6.1 client, and vice versa. Through some debugging I 
> found that it's a mismatch between the token's {{service}} and the 
> {{service}} of the filesystem (e.g. {{webhdfs://host.something.com:50070/}}). 
> One would be in numerical IP address and one would be in non-numerical 
> hostname format.
