Thomas Scott created OOZIE-2823:
-----------------------------------
Summary:
hadoop.security.credstore.java-keystore-provider.password-file is ignored by
Oozie Sqoop actions when using the password-alias option with a passworded
keystore.
Key: OOZIE-2823
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2823
Project: Oozie
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: action
Reporter: Thomas Scott
Priority: Minor
The --password-alias option in Sqoop allows you to retrieve the password for a
connection from a keystore.
As per
https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r3.0.0-alpha1/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/CredentialProviderAPI.html
this keystore can also have a password and this can be stored in a file using
the hadoop.security.credstore.java-keystore-provider.password-file option
Oozie doesn't currently seem to support this and instead we use the workaround:
<property>
<name>oozie.launcher.mapred.map.child.env</name>
<value>HADOOP_CREDSTORE_PASSWORD=`cat some_password_file`</value>
</property>
Oozie Sqoop actions should support the neater
hadoop.security.credstore.java-keystore-provider.password-file method.
