[jira] [Created] (HDFS-6790) DFSUtil Should Use configuration.getPassword for SSL passwords

Larry McCay created HDFS-6790:
---------------------------------

             Summary: DFSUtil Should Use configuration.getPassword for SSL passwords
                 Key: HDFS-6790
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6790
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Larry McCay


As part of HADOOP-10904, DFSUtil should be changed to leverage the new method on Configuration for acquiring known passwords for SSL. The getPassword method will leverage the credential provider API and/or fallback to the clear text value stored in ssl-server.xml.

This will provide an alternative to clear text passwords on disk while maintaining backward compatibility for this behavior.
