[GitBox]

smolnar82 opened a new pull request #441:
URL: https://github.com/apache/knox/pull/441


   ## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   
   The following features are implemented by this change:
   - if there is a misconfiguration in JDBCTokenState service, the 
AliasBasedTokenStateService is going to be used instead of failing the Knox 
Gateway to start
   - a new REST API is added to get the status of the token management backend
   - on the `tokengen` UI there is new information displayed about token 
management
   
   ## How was this patch tested?
   
   Updated and executed JUnit test. I also run manual testing:
   
   1. Token management is disabled in the `homepage` topology

   2. Token management is set to DB, but I misconfigured it in 
`gateway-site.xml` -> falling back to `AliasBasedtokenStateService`

   3. Token management is set to DB, but I misconfigured it in 
`gateway-site.xml` -> falling back to `AliasBasedtokenStateService`. I also set 
`knox.token.exp.tokengen.allowed.tss.backends` in the `homepage.xml` to 
`JDBCTokenStateService`
