Prerequisites
Following are the prerequisites to install HDInsight cluster with ESP:
Install and configure Azure Active Directory.
Create a group for Cluster Administration in Azure Active Directory.
Create a Cluster Admin User. The user does not require special rights or groups.
Set up different groups for the following roles in Azure Active Directory for Infoworks Authentication: System Admin, Database Admin, Data Analyst, Data Modeller.
Install and configure Azure Active Directory Domain Services (AADDS) from the Azure Portal.
Enable Secure LDAP for AADDS in Azure Portal. The default is false.
Create an SSL certificate. The certificate can be self-signed but a certificate from a trusted issuer is recommended. The certificate must be a wildcard for the AADDS domain. For example, *.myaadds.org. For details on the set up, see Configure secure LDAP (LDAPS) for an Azure AD Domain Services managed domain.
Go to security and ensure that only inbound access to specific IP address is allowed, and not to the internet. Else, LDAP will be exposed to the public internet.
To set up HDInsight cluster in a different resource group, ensure a VNet is created in a new resource group and peered with Azure AD VNet and vice-versa.
Set DNS provided by this VNet as the IPs of DNS services provided by AADDS, or a DNS forwarder that can resolve DNS queries to the AADDS domain.
Create a managed identity. Assign the HDInsight Domain Service Contributor role to the managed identity within the AADDS Azure resource.
For more details on ESP, see Configure a HDInsight cluster with Enterprise Security Package by using Azure Active Directory Domain Services.
