[jira] [Created] (HDFS-6771) Require specification of an encryption key when creating an encryption zone

Andrew Wang created HDFS-6771:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Require specification of an encryption key when creating an encryption zone
                 Key: HDFS-6771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6771
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
    Affects Versions: fs-encryption (HADOOP-10150 and HDFS-6134)
            Reporter: Andrew Wang
            Assignee: Andrew Wang


Currently, when creating an encryption zone, if the user does not specify a key name, the NN will generate a new one with a UUID. This leads to opaque names, and there's no way to specify further key creation attributes. Simpler and better is to make the admin first create the key however they like (e.g. via "hadoop key") and then specify it when creating a zone.
