WARNING: Work In Progress
The sequence diagram below is intended to be a very detailed description of the interactions that occur during the process of defining, submitting and executing a map reduce job on a secure Hadoop cluster. Ideally this will complement and clarify the Hadoop security design white paper.
The descriptions of the interactions below take this form.
Code Block |
---|
[Protocol] message( input ) : output |
The [Protocol]
portion describes the protocol, authentication mechanism and identities exchanged.
Abbreviation | Description |

tgt | Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket |
kp | Kerberos Principal: nn-kp = The Kerberos principal for the NameNode nn |
kt | Kerberos Ticket: u-jt-kt = A Kerberos Ticket for User u to access the JobTracker jt |
Kerberos principals use the principal abbreviation and the kp suffix.
Abbreviation | Description |
---|---|
| NameNode's Kerberos Principal |
| DataNode's Kerberos Principal (Unique principal for each DataNode on every node) |
| JobTracker's Kerberos Principal |
| TaskTracker's Kerberos Principal (Unique principal for each TaskTracker on every node) |
Kerberos tickets use the consumer principal abbreviation, provider principal abbreviation and kt suffix.
Abbreviation | Description |
---|---|
| Kerberos service ticket for User u to access NameNode nn |
| Kerberos service ticket for User u to access JobTracker jt |
| Kerberos service ticket for DataNode dn to access NameNode nn |
| Kerberos service ticket for JobTracker dn to access NameNode nn |
| Kerberos service ticket for TaskTracker tt to access JobTracker jt |
