             Summary: Kerberos: provide option to set test account name
                 Key: AMBARI-11590
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-11590
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Robert Levas
            Assignee: Robert Levas
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 2.1.0


In many situations with large-scale Active Directory deployments, the krb5.conf 
is managed outside of Ambari.  This krb5.conf file is configured with all of 
the DC's in the AD domain, and the outbound requests to the KDC from clients 
are load balanced across those servers.  In many scenarios the user replication 
latency causes issues with users not found during the test process.  Due to the 
fact that we generate a new user every time we test, this can get users to a 
circular situation in which they can never leave this state because of 
multi-KDC's in their krb5.conf and delay associated with replication.

1) Expose the option to set the test kerberos client principal name (under 
Advanced kerberos-env)
2) Default the value to something unique, but less than 20 characters {code}
${cluster_name}-${ddmm}
{code}
