2. Configuring Proxy Settings

  1. Stop all services. See "Controlling Services Manually" in the HDP Reference Guide for details.

  2. Change the proxy settings for the falcon user in the core-site.xml file to allow falcon to impersonate users and groups:

    <property>
         <name>hadoop.proxyuser.falcon.groups</name>
         <value>*</value>
    </property> 
     
    <property>
         <name>hadoop.proxyuser.falcon.hosts</name>
         <value>*</value>
    </property>

    where:

    hadoop.proxyuser.falcon.groups is a comma-separated list of the Unix groups whose users may be impersonated by Falcon

    hadoop.proxyuser.falcon.hosts is a comma-separated list of the hosts that are allowed to submit requests by Falcon

  3. Start all Services. See "Controlling Services Manually" in the HDP Reference Guide for details.
