> Community member Eric Shu reports:
> Here is the description for enable security properties:
> (https://geode.apache.org/docs/guide/114/managing/security/enable_security.html)
> security-manager Property
> The authentication callback and the authorization callback that implement the
> SecurityManager interface are specified with the security-manager property.
> When this property is defined, authentication and authorization are enabled.
> The definition of the security-manager property is the fully qualified name
> of the class that implements the SecurityManager interface. For example:
> security-manager = com.example.security.MySecurityManager
> To ensure that the security-manager property is applied consistently across a
> cluster, follow these guidelines:
> Specify the security-manager property in a properties file, such as
> gemfire.properties, not in a cluster configuration file (such as
> cluster.properties).
> Specify the properties file when you start the first locator for the cluster.
> The locator will propagate the value to all members (locators and servers)
> that follow.
> If you must specify the security-manager property for servers (neither
> necessary nor recommended) make sure its value is exactly identical to that
> specified for the first locator.
> This is true if the cluster has enabled the cluster configuration service,
> and new members have set the `use-cluster-configuration=true`.
> Documentation should explain that if cluster configuration is not enabled,
> you must specify the security-manager property for servers, makng sure its
> value is exactly identical to that specified for the first locator.
