    Description

      HCat Service Check (part of the Hive Service Check) fails in cluster where Kerberos is enabled:

      kinit: Keytab contains no suitable keys for ambari-qa@EXAMPLE.COM while getting initial credentials
      WARNING: Use "yarn jar" to launch YARN applications.
      

      The issue appears to be the wrong principal name in the kinit command - note the missing cluster name and realm in the principal name value.

      /usr/bin/kinit -kt /etc/security/keytabs/smokeuser.headless.keytab ambari-qa
      

      Cause
      The error is caused by the use of the wrong variable when generating the kinit command at common-services/HIVE/0.12.0.2.0/package/scripts/hcat_service_check.py:44

              {kinit_path_local} -kt {smoke_user_keytab} {smokeuser}
      

      Solution
      At common-services/HIVE/0.12.0.2.0/package/scripts/hcat_service_check.py:44, change smokeuser to smokeuser_principal.
