Issac Buenrostro commented on HDFS-15545:
-----------------------------------------

[~vagarychen] HDFS-6222 seems to be about automatic renewal of tokens when 
primary authentication is via Kerberos. This is an entirely different path 
where renewal is done externally to Webhdfs, so any changes in here would not 
affect renewal in any way.

> (S)Webhdfs will not use updated delegation tokens available in the ugi after 
> the old ones expire

> WebHdfsFileSystem can select a delegation token to use from the current user 
> UGI. The token selection is sticky, and WebHdfsFileSystem will re-use it 
> every time without searching the UGI again.
> If the previous token expires, WebHdfsFileSystem will catch the exception and 
> attempt to get a new token. However, the mechanism to get a new token 
> bypasses searching for one on the UGI, so even if there is external logic 
> that has retrieved a new token, it is not possible to make the FileSystem use 
> the new, valid token, rendering the FileSystem object unusable.
> A simple fix would allow WebHdfsFileSystem to re-search the UGI, and if it 
> finds a different token than the cached one try to use it.
