Devaraj Das commented on MAPREDUCE-5663: ---------------------------------------- Haven't read the issue in detail yet, but a quick comment on what [~sseth] said. In HBase, we have client talking to ZK (preconfigured quorum), and it locates the master from a specific znode (also preconfigured). The URI could be faked there (either as hbase:// and reading the ZK data from the configuration that is available in the context, or, hbase://quorum/znode as [~enis] just noted). > Add an interface to Input/Ouput Formats to obtain delegation tokens > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5663 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5663 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Siddharth Seth > Assignee: Michael Weng > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-5663.4.txt, MAPREDUCE-5663.5.txt, > MAPREDUCE-5663.6.txt, MAPREDUCE-5663.patch.txt, MAPREDUCE-5663.patch.txt2, > MAPREDUCE-5663.patch.txt3 > > > Currently, delegation tokens are obtained as part of the getSplits / > checkOutputSpecs calls to the InputFormat / OutputFormat respectively. > This works as long as the splits are generated on a node with kerberos > credentials. For split generation elsewhere (AM for example), an explicit > interface is required. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
