             Summary: Kerberos identity references should use the "reference" 
attribute
                 Key: AMBARI-21919
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-21919
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
            Reporter: Robert Levas
            Assignee: Robert Levas
             Fix For: 2.6.0


Kerberos identity references should use the "reference" attribute rather than 
rely on the "name" attribute to indicate the identity descriptor references 
some other identity descriptor.  

Either method should work on the backend, however the UI appears to not fully 
handle the "named" reference properly. 

The solution is to change 
{code}
            {
              "name": "/HDFS/NAMENODE/namenode_nn",
              "principal": {
                "configuration": 
"ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.principal"
              },
              "keytab": {
                "configuration": 
"ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.keyTab"
              }
            }
{code}

by changing the "name" attribute to "reference" and adding a new "name" 
reference with a unique name relative to the scope of the identity descriptor. 
For example:

{code}
            {
              "name":"ranger_hdfs_audit"
              "reference": "/HDFS/NAMENODE/namenode_nn",
              "principal": {
                "configuration": 
"ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.principal"
              },
              "keytab": {
                "configuration": 
"ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.keyTab"
              }
            }
{code}
