[jira] [Created] (KNOX-3302) KnoxLdapContextFactory to lookup system password on gateway-level credential store

Sandor Molnar created KNOX-3302:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: KnoxLdapContextFactory to lookup system password on gateway-level credential store
                 Key: KNOX-3302
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-3302
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Server
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Sandor Molnar
            Assignee: Sandor Molnar
             Fix For: 3.0.0


As of today, the KnoxLdapContextFactory tries to lookup a system password in the given topology's credential store (e.g. sandbox-credentials.jceks), and doesn't fallback to the gateway-level credential store if nothing is there.

In real-life deployments, topologies usually share the same LDAP instance, thus, configuring the system password on the gateway-level is enough and should be queried from there.
