zhaoyunjiong created HDFS-6829: ---------------------------------- Summary: DFSAdmin refreshSuperUserGroupsConfiguration failed in security cluster Key: HDFS-6829 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6829 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: tools Affects Versions: 2.4.1 Reporter: zhaoyunjiong Assignee: zhaoyunjiong Priority: Minor
When we run command "hadoop dfsadmin -refreshSuperUserGroupsConfiguration", it failed and report below message: 14/08/05 21:32:06 WARN security.MultiRealmUserAuthentication: The serverPrincipal = doesn't confirm to the standards refreshSuperUserGroupsConfiguration: null After check the code, I found the bug was triggered by below reasons: 1. We didn't set CommonConfigurationKeys.HADOOP_SECURITY_SERVICE_USER_NAME_KEY, which needed by RefreshUserMappingsProtocol. And in DFSAdmin, if no CommonConfigurationKeys.HADOOP_SECURITY_SERVICE_USER_NAME_KEY set, it will try to use DFSConfigKeys.DFS_NAMENODE_KERBEROS_PRINCIPAL_KEY: conf.set(CommonConfigurationKeys.HADOOP_SECURITY_SERVICE_USER_NAME_KEY, conf.get(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_NAMENODE_KERBEROS_PRINCIPAL_KEY, "")); 2. But we set DFSConfigKeys.DFS_NAMENODE_KERBEROS_PRINCIPAL_KEY in hdfs-site.xml 3. DFSAdmin didn't load hdfs-site.xml -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
