- OPSAPS-74370: Save Alias - IDBroker
command fails due to missing variable declaration
- Users trying to create IDBroker aliases through the
Cloudera Manager UI face issues in Cloudera Manager 7.13.1 using CDP 7.1.9.
- The alias(es) can be created using the Knox CLI:
ssh to Knox host.export
KNOX_GATEWAY_DATA_DIR="/var/lib/knox/idbroker/data";
export
KNOX_GATEWAY_CONF_DIR="/var/lib/knox/idbroker/conf"/opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/knox/bin/knoxcli.sh create-alias
<ALIAS_NAME> --cluster <CLUSTER_NAME> --value
<ALIAS_VALUE>- Verify the addition using
/opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/knox/bin/knoxcli.sh
list-alias --cluster <CLUSTER_NAME>
For HA deployments, users must do it on every Knox hosts (whereas the
Save Alias command applies the change to all
hosts automatically).
