OPSAPS-59597: SMM UI logs are not supported by Cloudera Manager
Cloudera Manager does not display a Log Files menu for SMM UI role (and SMM UI logs cannot be displayed in the Cloudera Manager UI) because the logging type used by SMM UI is not supported by Cloudera Manager.
View the SMM UI logs on the host.
OPSAPS-59553: SMM's bootstrap server config should be updated based on Kafka's listeners
SMM does not show any metrics for Kafka or Kafka Connect when multiple listeners are set in Kafka.
SMM cannot identify multiple listeners and still points to bootstrap server using the default broker port (9093 for SASL_SSL). You would have to override bootstrap server URL (hostname:port as set in the listeners for broker). Add the bootstrap server details in SMM safety valve in the following path:
Cloudera Manager > SMM > Configuration > Streams Messaging Manager Rest Admin Server Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for streams-messaging-manager.yaml > Add the following value for bootstrap servers>Save Changes > Restart SMM.
streams.messaging.manager.kafka.bootstrap.servers=<comma-separated list of brokers>
CDPD-70313: KNOX does not send Authentication header on FIPS configuration
KNOX does not send neither the Authentication header nor the hadoop.auth cookie. Because of this, the SMM UI returns an HTTP 401 response and sets the www-authenticate: Negotiate header. After this, KNOX still does not send the Authentication header. This results in the SMM UI being inaccessible through Knox.
You can access the SMM UI directly in Cloudera Manager at Clusters > SMM > Streams Messaging Manager Web UI and log in using the Kerberos username and password.
CDPD-82560: Streams Messaging Manager known unprotected endpoint
The Streams Messaging Manager Frontend exposes the /cm-configs and /configs public endpoints without requiring authentication. These endpoints do not share any sensitive information.
None.
CDPD-88488: The Streams Messaging Manager server fails to start if its keystore password starts with a special character or includes quotation marks

Ensure that the Streams Messaging Manager server keystore password meets the following requirements:

  • It does not start with a special character. Special characters are permitted in other positions.
  • It does not contain quotation marks (single or double) anywhere.
CDPD-76375: Topic column name is incorrect in the replications table

On the Cluster Replications page, in the replications table, the topic column name is incorrectly named Source Topic Name instead of Target Topic Name. This means that the Source Topic Name column currently shows the topic name on the target cluster, instead of the topic name on the source cluster.

Limitations

CDPD-36422: 1MB flow.snapshot freezes Safari
While importing large connector configurations, flow.snapshots reduces the usability of the Streams Messaging Manager when using Safari browser.
Use a different browser (Chrome/Firefox/Edge).
