CR Hota commented on HDFS-13972: -------------------------------- [~surendrasingh] In the case of OPEN/APPEND etc, clients are redirected to datanode and datanode then connects to router back for operation. Routers are the issuer of the delegation token. But for CREATE, since the first redirect is to the appropriate namenode, router has to try and create delegation token for the namenode. This has 2 issues, one clients will be able to get details of downstream namenode along with delegation token for that namenode exposing details of how federation is set-up, second this flow creates 2 redirects (instead of one) which is inefficient. I think router should send back a redirect to datanode (instead of namenode) for CREATE calls with router's address and DT itself. This needs fundamental change in how "create" works in router web. > RBF: Support for Delegation Token (WebHDFS) > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-13972 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13972 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Íñigo Goiri > Assignee: CR Hota > Priority: Major > Attachments: HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.001.patch, > HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.002.patch, HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.003.patch, > HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.004.patch, HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.005.patch, > HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.006.patch, HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.007.patch, > HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.008.patch, HDFS-13972-HDFS-13891.009.patch, > TestRouterWebHDFSContractTokens.java > > > HDFS Router should support issuing HDFS delegation tokens through WebHDFS. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
