Please note that all secure clusters would point to same KDC and share same krb5.conf and krb5JAASLoging.conf defined globally in gateway-site.xml.
Description
The boolean flag, hadoop.kerberos.secured, in topology file would be consulted by multiple providers.
So, it would be appropriate that this parameter is added at topology level than within a provider.
To do that, it is proposed that we add a new XML element <topology-params> as child element of root element <topology>.
<topology-params> could have any number of <param> elements.
For example, a topology file would look like the following:
<topology>
<topology-params>
<param>
<name>hadoop.kerberos.secured</name>
<value>true</value>
</param>
</topology-params>
<gateway>
...
</gateway>
...
</topology>
