Configuring custom Kerberos principal for Atlas

The Kerberos principal for Atlas is configured by default to use the same service principal as the default system user. To change the default setting:

  1. In Cloudera Manager, go to Atlas > Configuration.
  2. Search for the Kerberos Principal by entering "kerberos" in the search field
  3. Find the Kerberos Principal property and enter the custom Kerberos principal name.
  4. Click Save Changes.
  5. Click Actions > Restart.
    Cloudera Manager handles the mapping of the service user to the
 Kerberos Principal and no additional task is required. You must configure
 the required policies in the Ranger UI.
