Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-10747:
----------------------------------------
I expect production deployments generally won't need to tune this. I'm mostly
interested in using this in tests. In HDFS-2856, I'm adding tests for a
secured deployment using {{MiniKdc}}. I've observed that the tests fail very
intermittently during startup of the {{MiniDFSCluster}}, if all of the
datanodes attempt to authenticate with the same principal at the same time.
(This is an intentional feature of Kerberos trying to identify replay attacks,
and our retry loop is supposed to help work around it.) Increasing the retries
would work around this problem.
> Support configurable retries on SASL connection failures in RPC client.
