Authenticating Hadoop for Cloudera Machine Learning service accounts

In Cloudera Machine Learning, the Kerberos principal for the Service Account may not be the same as your login information. Therefore, ensure you provide the Kerberos identity when you sign in to the Service Account.

Authenticate the Service Account by completing the following procedure:

1. Navigate to your Cloudera Machine Learning Workspace.
2. Click Site Administration on the left sidebar.
3. Click the Users tab from the list of tabs displayed under Site Administration.
4. Select the Service Account from the list of users.
5. To authenticate, either provide the password in the Credentials’ password field or click Upload Keytab to upload the Keytab file directly.

Once successfully authenticated, Cloudera Machine Learning uses stored Service Account credentials to ensure you are secure when running workloads.
