METRON-799: The MPack should function in a kerberized cluster ## Contributor Comments Allows the Ambari Kerberos wizard to handle Metron setup. Changes include: - Creation of Keytabs - Running everything as the Metron user, including Storm topology workers (on a Kerberized cluster). - Setup for Metron user to actually be able to run (client_jaas setup, home Storm dir setup, etc.) - Adjusting perms to 0755. The exception is the HDFS output folder on a non-kerb cluster is left as 0775 because we don't have Storm running workers as metron user on. When Kerberizing, the permissions will be restricted down to 0755. - Kafka ACLs - HBase ACLs - Refactored Topic creation to use a common function so I didn't have to edit the same thing 3 times. - Automated updating of Storm configs (the AutoTGT and running workers as user) There's still more testing I want to do, but this is definitely far enough along to submit a PR. I've spun this up on full dev with the now modified Kerberos setup instructions, with the caveat that Ambari's Storm service check fails (it's harmless, as far as I can tell). See below for more details. As this does not touch the sensors, data will need to be pushed manually (same as the old instructions). I've been able to push data from Kafka to Elasticsearch/HDFS. ### The Bad News I would love insight on a problem, if anybody has some. I haven't edited the docs to reflect this yet, in the hopes it'll be resolved. Storm's service check will fail during (and after) Kerberization. Metron can immediately be started perfectly fine. Nothing is legit wrong, but this setup means that the storm user is unable to submit to the cluster (it doesn't have it's home directory setup with some configs). Unfortunately, Ambari runs the service check as the storm user. This can be worked around by creating ~storm/.storm/storm.yaml ``` nimbus.seeds : ['node1'] java.security.auth.login.config : '/usr/hdp/current/storm-supervisor/conf/storm_jaas.conf' storm.thrift.transport : 'org.apache.storm.security.auth.kerberos.KerberosSaslTransportPlugin ``` `java.security.auth.login.conf` can also be `/etc/storm/conf/storm_jaas.conf`, but the value above leads me to my next point. All of these values already exist in storm.yaml. The fact that they need to be specified again in the user's home is really strange. And it'll give an error that the TGT found is not renewable, not something you'd expected. I'm unsure if there are restrictions on where Ambari chooses to run service check, so it's possible this would have to be setup on every node Storm lives on the cluster. I'm also unsure if we can actually have Ambari automate this if it turns out to be necessary, since we aren't the Storm service. ## Pull Request Checklist Thank you for submitting a contribution to Apache Metron (Incubating).
