             Summary: Provision Consistent Credentials For Generated Topologies
                 Key: KNOX-1136
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-1136
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Server
    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
            Reporter: Phil Zampino
             Fix For: 0.14.0


For Knox HA scenarios, the password used to encrypt/decrypt query params MUST 
be the same across all of the participating Knox instances. Today, synching 
these passwords is a manual activity.

With Knox now discovering descriptors from remote registries, requiring an 
admin to manually configure the credential store for each participating Knox 
instance prior to deploying the descriptor to the remote registry limits the 
usefulness of this new feature and introduces potential for frequent failed 
deployments.

Knox can pre-provision a password for a topology prior to the generation of 
that topology, based on the master secret, in a manner which will be consistent 
across all the participating Knox instances.
