Step 5: Configure the Kerberos Default Realm in the Cloudera Manager Admin Console

Required Role:

  Important: Hadoop is unable to use a non-default realm. The Kerberos default realm is configured in the libdefaults property in the /etc/krb5.conf file on every host in the cluster: 
[libdefaults]
    default_realm = YOUR-LOCAL-REALM.COM
  1. In the Cloudera Manager Admin Console, select Administration > Settings.
  2. Click the Security category, and enter the Kerberos realm for the cluster in the Kerberos Security Realm field (for example, YOUR-LOCAL-REALM.COM or YOUR-SUB-REALM.YOUR-LOCAL-REALM.COM) that you configured in the krb5.conf file.
  3. Click Save Changes.
