    Description

      Lots of the following messages appeared in NN log:

      2014-12-10 12:18:15,728 WARN SecurityLogger.org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server: Auth failed for <ipAddress>:39838:null (DIGEST-MD5: IO error acquiring password)
      2014-12-10 12:18:15,728 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server: Socket Reader #1 for port 8020: readAndProcess from client <ipAddress> threw exception [org.apache.hadoop.ipc.StandbyException: Operation category READ is not supported in state standby]
      ......
      SecurityLogger.org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server: Auth failed for <ipAddress>:39843:null (DIGEST-MD5: IO error acquiring password)
      2014-12-10 12:18:15,790 INFO org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server: Socket Reader #1 for port 8020: readAndProcess from client <ipAddress> threw exception [org.apache.hadoop.ipc.StandbyException: Operation category READ is not supported in state standby]

      The real reason of failure is the second message about StandbyException,
      However, the first message is confusing because it talks about "DIGEST-MD5: IO error acquiring password".

      Filing this jira to modify the first message to have more comprehensive information that can be obtained from getCauseForInvalidToken(e).

             try {
                saslResponse = processSaslMessage(saslMessage);
              } catch (IOException e) {
                rpcMetrics.incrAuthenticationFailures();
                // attempting user could be null
                AUDITLOG.warn(AUTH_FAILED_FOR + this.toString() + ":"
                    + attemptingUser + " (" + e.getLocalizedMessage() + ")");
                throw (IOException) getCauseForInvalidToken(e);
              }
