[jira] [Updated] (OOZIE-1172) Add documentation on how to get Java actions to authenticate properly on Kerberos-enabled clusters

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1172?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robert Kanter updated OOZIE-1172:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
If a user tries to use a Java action (so they've written their own Java main method) on a Kerberos-enabled cluster it will fail because they need to propagate the delegation token like this (taken from the MapReduce action):
{code}
// propagate delegation related props from launcher job to MR job
if (System.getenv("HADOOP_TOKEN_FILE_LOCATION") != null) {
    jobConf.set("mapreduce.job.credentials.binary", System.getenv("HADOOP_TOKEN_FILE_LOCATION"));
}
{code}

We should document this somewhere.
