------------------------------------
I have checked the failure test happens random and isn't relevant to this.

> Currently it's not able to single sign on between hadoop web console and
> webhdfs since they don't share common configurations as required to, such as
> signature secret to sign authenticaton token, and domain cookie etc. This
> improvement would allow sso between the two, and also simplify the
> configuration by removing the duplicate effort for the two parts.
> The sso makes sense because in current web console, it integrates webhdfs and
> we should avoid redundant sign on in different mechanisms. This is necessary
> when a certain authentication mechanism other than SPNEGO is desired across
> web console and webhdfs.
