----------------------------------------
Summary: Document LdapGroupsMapping keystore password properties
Key: HADOOP-13441
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13441
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang
Priority: Minor
A few properties are not documented.
{{hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.ssl.keystore.password}}
This property is used as an alias to get password from credential providers,
or, fall back to using the value as password in clear text. There is also a
caveat that credential providers can not be a HDFS-based file system, as
mentioned in HADOOP-11934, to prevent cyclic dependency issue.
This should be documented in core-default.xml and GroupsMapping.md
{{hadoop.security.credential.clear-text-fallback}}
This property controls whether or not to fall back to storing credential
password as cleartext.
This should be documented in core-default.xml.
{{hadoop.security.credential.provider.path}}
This is mentioned in _CredentialProvider API Guide_, but not in core-default.xml
The "Supported Features" in _CredentialProvider API Guide_ should link back to
GroupsMapping.md#LDAP Groups Mapping
