Hello @japsas100,

that is a bit of a hard one, very general. We don't know much about your HW, SW and general deployment. Plus iwhat you are asking here would take quite a lot of time. For that purpose, I would rather recommend you to request support from SAS Technical Support or a SAS Consultant (or a trusted SAS Partner).

But let me give you some bits of  practical highlights, let see if they can help you a bit:

• You got the right document. The first thing you need to do are:
  • to get a Hadoop specialist available for you,
  • and get the Pre-requisites ready. On your link, the second chapter, page 13. All of them, and better not to continue until they are 100% OK. Good pre-requisites will give you more than 50% of success options. Check if you need the optional configuration on the Chapter 4. 
• Once you got the pre-requisites in place, including the Hadoop cluster, and all fo them can be independently validated (such as the SSH trusted connections and Kerberized trust).

On the pages 17 and 18 you can see the steps to configure it, which involves to create krb5.keytab file and some variables on the ssh_config file, such as GSSAPIDelegateCredentials=yes.
