Dave Ariens commented on SLIDER-972: ------------------------------------ I'd encourage this project to prioritize updating the docs to clearly identify that the AM keytab doesn't get distributed. The error messages can be less than informative. During my deployment of running HBase on Slider they were: {code} java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed construction of Regionserver: class org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException Caused by: java.io.IOException: Login failure for user@COMPANY from keytab /data/1/yarn/local/usercache/user/appcache/application_1459436729804_20628/container_1459436729804_20628_01_000003/keytabs/user.keytab Caused by: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: Unable to obtain password from user {code} ...and it wasn't until I hoped on a DN and realized the keytab wasn't even there did I proceed to further investigate and ultimately find this ticket. > allow shipping the same keytab to components and AM > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SLIDER-972 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLIDER-972 > Project: Slider > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin > > Right now, AM keytab is excluded from component directories. This is not > clearly documented, and after understanding the issue one has to copy the > same keytab with a different name to upload it. It would be useful to be able > to upload the same keytab for both. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
