[jira] [Created] (AMBARI-9852) Kerberos Service Check needs to generate and destroy it's own unique identity for testing

Robert Levas created AMBARI-9852:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Kerberos Service Check needs to generate and destroy it's own unique identity for testing
                 Key: AMBARI-9852
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-9852
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Robert Levas
            Assignee: Robert Levas
             Fix For: 2.0.0


The Kerberos _service check_ needs to generate it's own unique identity to use for testing and then destroy it when complete.  This will ensure that any _known_ identities (such as the smokeuser, usually ambari-qa) does not accidentally get removed if shared between clusters or if the service check is run after Kerberos is enabled. 

The service check must perform the following steps:

# Create a unique principal in the relevant KDC (server)
# Test that the principal can be used to authenticate via kinit (agent)
# Destroy the principal (server)
