Once you read the the docs and get a base understanding.. here is my recipe you can try for a maintainable , easy to manage setup.
- Puppet-IPA (puppet recipe for FreeIPA for setting up kerberos realms and users) - then layer in apache bigtop's puppet hadoop modules (for installation and setup of the hadoop cluster) - then do the glue necessary to kerberize existing, running hadoop services (free ipa will set up the kerberos realm for you, add users, and so on - all you have to do is add the kerberos security info into the core-site.xml) On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 3:52 PM, Shahab Yunus <shahab.yu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi > > Have you already looked at the existing documentation? > > For apache > > http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.3.0/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SecureMode.html > > -For cloudera > > http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera-content/cloudera-docs/CDH4/4.6.0/CDH4-Security-Guide/cdh4sg_topic_3.html > > Some random blogs: > http://blog.godatadriven.com/kerberos-cloudera-setup.html > > Regards, > Shahab > > On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 3:47 PM, Xiaohua Chen <xiaohua.c...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hi experts: >> >> I am new to Hadoop.
