             Summary: Allow secure mode to be enabled with no downtime
                 Key: HADOOP-18967
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-18967
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Charles Connell


My employer (HubSpot) recently completed transitioning all of the Hadoop 
clusters underlying our HBase databases into secure mode. It was important to 
us that we be able to make this change without impacting the functionality of 
our SaaS product. To accomplish this, we added some new settings to our fork of 
Hadoop, and fixed a latent bug. This ticket is my intention to contribute these 
changes back to the mainline code, so others can benefits. A PR will be 
incoming.

The basic theme of the new functionality is the ability to accept incoming 
secure connections without requiring them or making them outgoing. Secure mode 
enablement will then be done in two stages.
 * First, all nodes are given configuration to accept secure connections, and 
are gracefully rolling-restarted to adopt this new functionality. I'll be 
adding the new settings to make this stage possible.
 * Second, all nodes are told to require incoming connections be secure, and to 
make secure outgoing connections, and the settings added in the first stage are 
removed. Nodes are again rolling-restarted to adopt this functionality. The 
settings in this final state will look the same as in any secure Hadoop cluster 
today.

I'll include documentation changes explaining how to do this.
