Github user khalidhuseynov commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/1840 @zjffdu i didn't try secured cluster mode yet, but as i checked spark documentation, they indeed don't allow using `--principal` & `--keytab` for spark-submit alongside with `--proxy-user` because of security issue on exposing keytab. Then possible solutions could be: 1. user configures `export ZEPPELIN_IMPERSONATE_CMD` in [here](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/blob/d1fc86b7b2d2012c0323345166c98cc02886e9f1/conf/zeppelin-env.sh.template#L83) with `kinit <principal>@<REALM> -k -t <keytab file>` and then it's run before `spark-submit` 2. don't use `--proxy-user` in cluster mode 3. other suggestions
