Configure Kerberos authentication for Apache Ranger
How to configure Kerberos Authentication for Apache Ranger
Kerberos authentication for Apache Ranger is automatically configured when HDFS Kerberos authentication is configured in Cloudera Manager (typically using the Cloudera Manager Kerberos Wizard).
Specifically, Ranger depends on the HDFShadoop.security.authentication property to
enable or disable Kerberos authentication. When the
hadoop.security.authentication property is updated, the Ranger
service gets a restart indicator for the core-site.xml file that
resides inside the Ranger service conf directory generated by Cloudera Manager.
Ranger Kerberos authentication is automatically enabled when HDFS Kerberos authentication is enabled.
