Closed Issues in 6.3.1_HF-001 (This Release)
 
Defect ID: BWBD-878
On deploying a kerberos enabled application on cloud platforms, following exception is
thrown: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException

Resoultion:
To deploy a Kerberos enabled application on cloud platforms follow the below procedure:
In the HDFS and HCatalog Connection shared resource configurations, provide the login module 
file (.conf or .config) to authorize access to WebHCat.  
The Login Module File should be in this format:
HDFSClient 
   {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
    useKeyTab=true
    storeKey=false
    debug=true
    keyTab="<keytab file path>"
    principal="<Principal>";
   };

HadoopClient 
    {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
    useKeyTab=true
    storeKey=false
    debug=true
    keyTab="<keytab file path>"
    principal="<Principal>";
   };

For AIX only, the login module file should be in this format:
HDFSClient 
   {
    com.ibm.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
    principal="<Principal>"
    useKeytab="<keytab file path>"
    credsType="both";
   };

HadoopClient 
   {
    com.ibm.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
    principal="<Principal>"
    useKeytab="<keytab file path>"
    credsType="both";
   };

Each LoginModule-specific item specifies a LoginModule, a flag value, and options to be passed 
to the LoginModule. You can leave the Kerberos Prinicpal and Kerberos Keytab fields blank when 
you provide the Login Module File in the HDFS and HCatalog shared resource. Enterprise customers 
when deloying on TEA can leave the Login Module File empty.

Defect ID: BWBD-785

Defect ID: BWBD-907
Throw specific error message with exception when HDFS and HCatalog connection 
shared resource has invalid configurations.
