Configuring Token Authentication Information for Kafka Users
Scenario
Operations need to be performed on tokens when the token authentication mechanism is used.
This section applies to Kerberos authentication-enabled clusters of MRS 3.x or later.
Prerequisites
- The MRS cluster administrator has understood service requirements and prepared a system user.
- Token authentication has been enabled.
- The Kafka client has been installed.
Procedure
- Log in as a client installation user to the node on which the Kafka client is installed.
- Switch to the Kafka client installation directory, for example, /opt/client.
cd /opt/client
- Run the following command to configure environment variables:
source bigdata_env
- Run the following command to perform user authentication:
kinit Component service user
- Run the following command to switch to the Kafka client installation directory:
cd Kafka/kafka/bin
- Use kafka-delegation-tokens.sh to perform operations on tokens.
- Generate a token for a user.
./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --create --bootstrap-server <IP1:PORT, IP2:PORT,...> --max-life-time-period <Long: max life period in milliseconds> --command-config <config file> --renewer-principal User:<user name>
Example: ./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --create --bootstrap-server 192.168.1.1:21007,192.168.1.2:21007,192.168.1.3:21007 --command-config ../config/producer.properties --max-life-time-period -1 --renewer-principal User:username
- List information about all tokens of a specified user.
./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --describe --bootstrap-server <IP1:PORT, IP2:PORT,...> --command-config <config file> --owner-principal User:<user name>
Example: ./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --describe --bootstrap-server 192.168.1.1:21007,192.168.1.2:21007,192.168.1.3:21007 --command-config ../config/producer.properties --owner-principal User:username
- Update the token validity period.
./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --renew --bootstrap-server <IP1:PORT, IP2:PORT,...> --renew-time-period <Long: renew time period in milliseconds> --command-config <config file> --hmac <String: HMAC of the delegation token>
Example: ./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --renew --bootstrap-server 192.168.1.1:21007,192.168.1.2:21007,192.168.1.3:21007 --renew-time-period -1 --command-config ../config/producer.properties --hmac ABCDEFG
- Destroy a token.
./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --expire --bootstrap-server <IP1:PORT, IP2:PORT,...> --expiry-time-period <Long: expiry time period in milliseconds> --command-config <config file> --hmac <String: HMAC of the delegation token>
Example: ./kafka-delegation-tokens.sh --expire --bootstrap-server 192.168.1.1:21007,192.168.1.2:21007,192.168.1.3:21007 --expiry-time-period -1 --command-config ../config/producer.properties --hmac ABCDEFG
- Generate a token for a user.
