Hello,

how would you guys go about adding additional nodes to a Hadoop cluster running 
with Kerberos, preferably without restarting the 
namenode/resourcemanager/hbase-master etc?

I am aware that one can add names to dfs.hosts and run dfsadmin -refreshNodes, 
but with Kerberos I have the additional problem that the new hosts' principals 
have to be added to hadoop.security.auth_to_local (I do not have the luxury of 
an easy albeit secure pattern for host names). Alas, I see no way of 
propagating changes there to running demons.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Rainer
