             Summary: Recover gracefully from corrupt kerberos credential cache
                 Key: IMPALA-9359
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9359
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: Impala 3.3.0
            Reporter: Tim Armstrong
            Assignee: Tim Armstrong


# Start up a kerberized Impala cluster
# Corrupt the kerberos ticket cache used by impala /tmp/krb5cc_impala_internal
# Observe queries fail. The details depend a lot on timing, etc. I have seen 
communication failures between impalads and with other systems, e.g. HDFS.
# The system will stay wedge in this state indefinitely

We have seen this happen once in production from /tmp filling up.

I prototyped a fix that amounts to re-running Kinit() to blow away the broken 
credential cache. It needs more work to be production-ready
