Matteo Bertozzi commented on HBASE-14865: ----------------------------------------- +1 > Support passing multiple QOPs to SaslClient/Server via hbase.rpc.protection > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-14865 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14865 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: security > Reporter: Appy > Assignee: Appy > Attachments: HBASE-14865-master-v2.patch, > HBASE-14865-master-v3.patch, HBASE-14865-master-v4.patch, > HBASE-14865-master-v5.patch, HBASE-14865-master-v6.patch, > HBASE-14865-master.patch > > > Currently, we can set the value of hbase.rpc.protection to one of > authentication/integrity/privacy. It is the used to set > {{javax.security.sasl.qop}} in SaslUtil.java. > The problem is, if a cluster wants to switch from one qop to another, it'll > have to take a downtime. Rolling upgrade will create a situation where some > nodes have old value and some have new, which'll prevent any communication > between them. There will be similar issue when clients will try to connect. > {{javax.security.sasl.qop}} can take in a list of QOP in preferences order. > So a transition from qop1 to qop2 can be easily done like this > "qop1" --> "qop2,qop1" --> rolling restart --> "qop2" --> rolling restart > Need to change hbase.rpc.protection to accept a list too. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
