Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-13805:
---------------------------------------------
[~xiaochen],
{{kinit -R}} assumes the TGT can still be renewed, if it reached it max life
time it is not. So this will delay the failure until the TGT cannot be renewed
anymore; at that point it will fail as you'll need to use the keytab which you
don't have.
Regardless, even if {{kinit -R}} would do the trick, it is not correct for UGI
to take over renewal responsibilities when the TGT has not been obtained by UGI.

> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security
> Affects Versions: 2.8.0, 2.9.0, 3.0.0-alpha2
> Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
> Assignee: Xiao Chen

> HADOOP-13558 intention was to avoid UGI from trying to renew the TGT when the
> UGI is created from an existing Subject as in that case the keytab is not
> 'own' by UGI but by the creator of the Subject.
> In HADOOP-13558 we introduced a new private UGI constructor
> {{UserGroupInformation(Subject subject, final boolean externalKeyTab)}} and
> we use with TRUE only when doing a {{UGI.loginUserFromSubject()}}.
> The problem is, when we call {{UGI.getCurrentUser()}}, and UGI was created
> via a Subject (via the {{UGI.loginUserFromSubject()}} method), we call {{new
> UserGroupInformation(subject)}} which will delegate to
> {{UserGroupInformation(Subject subject, final boolean externalKeyTab)}} and
> that will use externalKeyTab == *FALSE*.
> Then the UGI returned by {{UGI.getCurrentUser()}} will attempt to login using
> a non-existing keytab if the TGT expired.
> This problem is experienced in {{KMSClientProvider}} when used by the HDFS
> filesystem client accessing an an encryption zone.
