hftp only supports remote hdfs servers
--------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2336
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2336
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 0.23.0
Reporter: Daryn Sharp
Fix For: 0.23.0
The new token renewal implementation appears to introduce invalid assumptions
regarding token kinds.
Any token acquired over http is assumed to be hftp, so the kind is
unconditionally changed to hftp. This precludes the acquisition of any other
token types over http. This new limitation was added to a generic method in a
public class. It should have been encapsulated in the hftp class, not the
generic http token fetching methods.
Furthermore, hftp will unconditionally change a hftp token's kind to hdfs. I
believe this assumption means that hftp is now broken if the remote cluster's
default filesystem is not hdfs.
