Step 4: Import KDC Account Manager Credentials

  1. In the Cloudera Manager Admin Console, select Administration > Security.
  2. Go to the Kerberos Credentials tab and click Import Kerberos Account Manager Credentials.
  3. In the Import Kerberos Account Manager Credentials dialog box, enter the username and password for the user that can create principals for CDH cluster in the KDC. This is the user/principal you created in Step 3: Get or Create a Kerberos Principal for the Cloudera Manager Server. Cloudera Manager encrypts the username and password into a keytab and uses it as needed to create new principals.
  Note: The username entered should have the realm portion in upper-case only as shown in the example in the UI.
