How to setup cross realm trust between two MIT KDC – In this post, we will see how to setup cross realm trust between two MIT KDC. We can access and copy data of one cluster from another if the cross realm trust is setup correctly.

 

In our example, we have 2 clusters with same HDP version(2.4.2.0) and Ambari version(2.2.2.0)

Cluster 1:

172.26.68.47 hwx-1.hwx.com  hwx-1
172.26.68.46 hwx-2.hwx.com  hwx-2
172.26.68.45 hwx-3.hwx.com  hwx-3

Cluster 2:

172.26.68.48 support-1.support.com   support-1
172.26.68.49 support-2.support.com   support-2
172.26.68.50 support-3.support.com   support-3

 

Below are the steps:

 

Step 1: Make sure both the clusters are kerberized with MIT KDC. You can use below automated script for configuring Kerberos on HDP.

https://community.hortonworks.com/articles/29203/automated-kerberos-installation-and-configuration.html

 

Step 2: Please configure /etc/hosts file on both the clusters to have Ip <-> hostname mappings.

Example:

On both clusters /etc/hosts file should look like below:

172.26.68.47 hwx-1.hwx.com  hwx-1
172.26.68.46 hwx-2.hwx.com  hwx-2
172.26.68.45 hwx-3.hwx.com  hwx-3
172.26.68.48 support-1.support.com   support-1
172.26.68.49 support-2.support.com   support-2
172.26.68.50 support-3.support.com   support-3

 

Step 3: Configure krb5.conf:

 

3.1 Configure [realm] section to add another cluster’s KDC server details – This is required to find KDC to authenticate user which belongs to another cluster.

Example on Cluster1:

[realms]
  HWX.COM = {
    admin_server = hwx-1.hwx.com
    kdc = hwx-1.hwx.com
  }
  SUPPORT.COM = {
    admin_server = support-1.support.com
    kdc = support-1.support.com
  }

3.2 Configure [domain_realm] section to add another cluster’s domain <-> realm mapping. 

[domain_realm]
  .hwx.com = HWX.COM
  hwx.com = HWX.COM
  .support.com = SUPPORT.COM
  support.com = SUPPORT.COM

3.3 Configure [capaths] to add another cluster’s realm

[capaths]
    HWX.COM = {
         SUPPORT.COM = .
    }

On Cluster 1, the krb5.conf should look like below:

[libdefaults]
  renew_lifetime = 7d
  forwardable = true
  default_realm = HWX.COM
  ticket_lifetime = 24h
  dns_lookup_realm = false
  dns_lookup_kdc = false
  #default_tgs_enctypes = aes des3-cbc-sha1 rc4 des-cbc-md5
  #default_tkt_enctypes = aes des3-cbc-sha1 rc4 des-cbc-md5
[logging]
  default = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
  admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmind.log
  kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
[realms]
  HWX.COM = {
    admin_server = hwx-1.hwx.com
    kdc = hwx-1.hwx.com
  }
  SUPPORT.COM = {
    admin_server = support-1.support.com
    kdc = support-1.support.com
  }
[domain_realm]
  .hwx.com = HWX.COM
  hwx.com = HWX.COM
  .support.com = SUPPORT.COM
  support.com = SUPPORT.COM
[capaths]
    HWX.COM = {
         SUPPORT.COM = .
    }

Note – Please copy modified /etc/krb5.conf to all the nodes in Cluster 1

 

Similarly on Cluster2, the krb5.conf should look like below:

[libdefaults]
  renew_lifetime = 7d
  forwardable = true
  default_realm = SUPPORT.COM
  ticket_lifetime = 24h
  dns_lookup_realm = false
  dns_lookup_kdc = false
  #default_tgs_enctypes = aes des3-cbc-sha1 rc4 des-cbc-md5
  #default_tkt_enctypes = aes des3-cbc-sha1 rc4 des-cbc-md5
[logging]
  default = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
  admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmind.log
  kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
[realms]
  SUPPORT.COM = {
    admin_server = support-1.support.com
    kdc = support-1.support.com
  }
  HWX.COM = {
    admin_server = hwx-1.hwx.com
    kdc = hwx-1.hwx.com
  }
[domain_realm]
  .hwx.com = HWX.COM
  hwx.com = HWX.COM
  .support.com = SUPPORT.COM
  support.com = SUPPORT.COM
[capaths]
    SUPPORT.COM = {
        HWX.COM = .
    }

Note – Please copy modified /etc/krb5.conf to all the nodes in Cluster 2

 

Step 4: Modify below property in hdfs-site.xml on a cluster from where you want to execute distcp command ( specifically speaking – client side )

dfs.namenode.kerberos.principal.pattern=*

 

Step 5: Add a common trust principal in both the KDCs. Please keep same password for both the principals

On Cluster 1 and 2, execute below commands in kadmin utility:

addprinc krbtgt/HWX.COM@SUPPORT.COM
addprinc krbtgt/SUPPORT.COM@HWX.COM

 

Step 6: Configure auth_to_local rules on both the clusters:

On Cluster1, append auth_to_local rules from Cluster2

Example on Cluster 1:

RULE:[1:$1@$0](ambari-qa-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/ambari-qa/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](hdfs-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](spark-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/spark/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](.*@HWX.COM)s/@.*//
RULE:[2:$1@$0](dn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](hive@HWX.COM)s/.*/hive/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jhs@HWX.COM)s/.*/mapred/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nm@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](rm@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](yarn@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/
DEFAULT
RULE:[1:$1@$0](ambari-qa-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/ambari-qa/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](hdfs-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](spark-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/spark/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](.*@SUPPORT.COM)s/@.*//
RULE:[2:$1@$0](dn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](hive@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hive/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jhs@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/mapred/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nm@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](rm@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](yarn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/

 

On Cluster2, append auth_to_local rules from Cluster1

 

Example on Cluster 2:

RULE:[1:$1@$0](ambari-qa-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/ambari-qa/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](hdfs-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](spark-support@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/spark/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](.*@SUPPORT.COM)s/@.*//
RULE:[2:$1@$0](dn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](hive@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hive/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jhs@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/mapred/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nm@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](rm@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](yarn@SUPPORT.COM)s/.*/yarn/
DEFAULT
RULE:[1:$1@$0](ambari-qa-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/ambari-qa/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](hdfs-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](spark-hadoop@HWX.COM)s/.*/spark/
RULE:[1:$1@$0](.*@HWX.COM)s/@.*//
RULE:[2:$1@$0](dn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](hive@HWX.COM)s/.*/hive/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jhs@HWX.COM)s/.*/mapred/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](jn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nm@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](nn@HWX.COM)s/.*/hdfs/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](rm@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/
RULE:[2:$1@$0](yarn@HWX.COM)s/.*/yarn/

 

Step7: Add common user principal to both the KDCs. Execute below commands on both the KDC, please keep same password for both the principals.

For Cluster 1:

6.1. Login to kadmin

6.2. Execute below command to add a user principal

addprinc kuldeepk@HWX.COM

 

For Cluster 2:

6.3. Login to kadmin

6.4. Execute below command to add a user principal

addprinc kuldeepk@SUPPORT.COM

 

Step 8: Login to Cluster 2, do a kinit and try to access hdfs files of Cluster 1

Example:

hdfs dfs -ls hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp
Found 8 items
drwx------   - ambari-qa hdfs          0 2016-07-29 23:24 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/ambari-qa
drwxr-xr-x   - hdfs      hdfs          0 2016-07-29 22:02 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/entity-file-history
drwx-wx-wx   - ambari-qa hdfs          0 2016-07-29 23:25 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/hive
-rwxr-xr-x   3 hdfs      hdfs       1414 2016-07-29 23:50 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/id1aac2d44_date502916
-rwxr-xr-x   3 ambari-qa hdfs       1414 2016-07-29 23:26 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/idtest.ambari-qa.1469834803.19.in
-rwxr-xr-x   3 ambari-qa hdfs        957 2016-07-29 23:26 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/idtest.ambari-qa.1469834803.19.pig
drwxr-xr-x   - ambari-qa hdfs          0 2016-07-29 23:53 hdfs://hwx-2.hwx.com:8020/tmp/tezsmokeinput

Note – hwx-2.hwx.com is the Active Namenode of Cluster 1.

 

You can try copying files from Cluster 2 to Cluster 1 using distcp

 

Example:

[kuldeepk@support-1 root]$ hadoop distcp hdfs://hwx-1.hwx.com:8020/tmp/test.txt /tmp/
