Fixed Issues in Apache Knox

Review the list of Knox issues that are resolved in CDP Private Cloud Base 7.3.1.

CDPD-73275: HTTP 404 responses while Knox is redeploying topologies

While you were redeploying topologies, Knox returned HTTP 404 responses.

Knox no longer returns HTTP 404 responses during topology redeployment, but returns HTTP 503 instead.

CDPD-70313: KNOX did not send Authentication header on FIPS configuration

KNOX neither sent the authentication header nor hadoop.auth cookie that was why the SMM UI sent back the HTTP 401 response and set the "www-authenticate": "Negotiate" header. Because of this, the SMM UI was inaccessible through Knox.

This issue is fixed now.

CDPD-67478: Custom topologies cannot be deleted

You cannot delete custom topologies that were created.

This issue is fixed.

OPSAPS-67480: In 7.1.9, default Ranger policy is added from the cdp-proxy-token topology, so that after a new installation of CDP-7.1.9, the knox-ranger policy includes cdp-proxy-token. However, upgrades do not add cdp-proxy-token to cm_knox policies automatically

This issue is fixed now.

CDPD-69305: /plugins/policies/importPoliciesFromFile API returns 500 service connectivity error through Knox Proxy

The fix imports large policy files using the Ranger importPoliciesFromFile API through Knox.
