I have completed KnoxSSO with Okta testing with each of the usecase types:
Existing KnoxSSO aware Hadoop Applications (Ambari) and New Hadoop
application development (KnoXplorer sample).

I've added two wikis tutorials for those that are interested in running
through the usecases:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KNOX/KnoxSSO+and+Okta
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KNOX/Ambari+via+KnoxSSO+and+Okta

I will be continuing normal apache release testing now with API access and
samples.
