> Kerberos identity references should use the "reference" attribute rather than rely on the "name" attribute to indicate the identity descriptor references some other identity descriptor.  
> Either method should work on the backend, however the UI appears to not fully handle the "named" reference properly. 
> The solution is to change 
> {code}
>             {
>               "name": "/HDFS/NAMENODE/namenode_nn",
>               "principal": {
>                 "configuration": "ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.principal"
>               },
>               "keytab": {
>                 "configuration": "ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.keyTab"
>               }
>             }
> {code}
> by changing the "name" attribute to "reference" and adding a new "name" reference with a unique name relative to the scope of the identity descriptor. For example:
> {code}
>             {
>               "name":"ranger_hdfs_audit"
>               "reference": "/HDFS/NAMENODE/namenode_nn",
>               "principal": {
>                 "configuration": "ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.principal"
>               },
>               "keytab": {
>                 "configuration": "ranger-hdfs-audit/xasecure.audit.jaas.Client.option.keyTab"
>               }
>             }
> {code}
