embedded HDFS cluster + Kerberos question

[Bear Giles <bg...@snaplogic.com>]

Stupid question but der google insists on telling me how to set up Kerberos
on CDH and HDP clusters using GUIs instead of how to do it at a very low
level.

I have an embedded KDC and DFS servers running in my unit tests. I know how
to create the DFS Kerberos principals in the KDC and configure the DFS so
it knows the principals to use and a modified 'kinit command' so that it
refers to the krb5.conf file for the embedded KDC.

However I can't figure out where to put the keytab file so the embedded DFS
server (and potentially other embedded servers) knows where to find it.

I've gone as far as doing 'sudo / find -name "*.keytab"' on some of my
actual clusters to see where the file is located, with no luck.

Where do the server keytab files go?
