----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ambari-agent: Support storing passwords using hadoop credential store
                 Key: AMBARI-18687
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-18687
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: ambari-agent
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2
            Reporter: Nahappan Somasundaram
            Assignee: Nahappan Somasundaram
             Fix For: 2.5.0


Some components support the use of Hadoop Credential Store API to read passwords from a JCEKS provider. If this is enabled, ambari agent must be able to use the JCEKS provider to store passwords. 

This requires writing a command line wrapper utility over the Hadoop Credential Provider API in Java on the ambari agent side. Whenever a non-status command is received, ambari agent will use this utility to create the JCEKS provider for each configuration with the passwords in them. 

After that, the configuration XML files will be generated using the path to their respective JCEKS provider path.
