Philip Zampino resolved KNOX-2211.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
The primary motivation for this issue was a concern around uniqueness of
aliases in the keystore, but KNOX-2266 alleviates that concern. Without another
significant driver, supporting this would only add unnecessary complexity.
> AliasBasedTokenStateService should store token state in topology-specific
> credential stores

> Key: KNOX-2211
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-2211
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Server
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Philip Zampino
> Assignee: Philip Zampino
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently, the AliasBasedTokenStateService persists all token state in the
> gateway's central credential store rather than a topology-specific credential
> store. This was done because the providers that also employ the
> TokenStateService do not know from which topology a token was produced, and
> therefore have not enough information to correctly specify a topology
> credential store.
> It may be possible to include this missing topology information in the tokens
> themselves, such that the providers (or the TokenStateService) would be able
> to correctly specify the topology credential store.
