Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on MAPREDUCE-2764:
-------------------------------------------------
I had a long discussion with Owen. Here is the new proposal:
- Add setKind method in the token
- Add a new kind for tokens i.e. HFTP
- HftpFileSystem client fetches the token and sets the kind to HFTP and the
service to ip:http-port.
- Renewer determines the filesystem to use (hftp or DFS) using the kind of the
token. The hftp port is also obtained from the token.
- Hftp client looks for HFTP tokens in the UGI when making an hftp call to nn.
- Hftp client sends the token in the url to the namenode. Before serializing
the token in the url, Hftp client changes the service to ip:rpc-port and kind
of the token back to HDFS.
Pros:
No change to Namenode.
No change to rpc.
No change to token selectors.
Most of the changes are confined to HftpFileSystem class.
HftpFilesystem already has a mechanism to map the http port to rpc port,
which it can use to set the service before encoding the token in the url.
Changing the kind will make sure that this token is not accidentally used for
rpc connection.
Cons:
Token obtained over hftp, cannot be used over rpc by clients.

>
> The JT may have issues renewing hftp tokens which disrupt long distcp jobs.
> The problem is the JT's delegation token renewal code is built on brittle
> assumptions. The token's service field contains only the "ip:port" pair.
> The renewal process assumes that the scheme must be hdfs. If that fails due
> to a {{VersionMismatchException}}, it tries https based on another assumption
> that it must be hftp if it's not hdfs. A number of other exceptions, most
> commonly {{IOExceptions}}, can be generated which fouls up the renewal since
> it won't fallback to https.
