-------------------------------------
Summary: Enhance Kerberos name support for cross realm HBase
replication
Key: HBASE-15254
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15254
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Ashish Singhi
Assignee: Ashish Singhi
HBase replication will not work with Kerberos cross realm trust when domain
name in the principal is not hostname.
A mail was also sent related to this in user mailing list, [mail |
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/nosql-databases/AYhQnU9Fc7E]
The problem here is when ever a user adds a new host to cluster he/she also
needs to add a principal name for that host in KDC, generate a new keytab file
and update it across other hosts accordingly if required.
To save all this efforts users may prefer to have a fixed domain name in the
principal for all the hosts and in that case HBase replication will fail.
