Íñigo Goiri commented on HADOOP-16125:
--------------------------------------

As referred in the description, if we have a single user and we are changing 
the password, there will be a time (while the new secret is getting propagated) 
that auth will fail.
A common solution for this is to have two users and change one at a time.
This change will enable this approach.

Regarding [^HADOOP-16125.001.patch], LGTM.
The refactor for the user/password makes LdapGroupsMapping cleaner too.

Let's see what Yetus says.

> Currently, LdapGroupsMapping supports only a single user to bind to when 
> connecting to LDAP. This can be problematic if such user's password needs to 
> be reset. 
> The proposal is to support multiple such users and switch between them if 
> necessary, more info in GroupsMapping.md / core-default.xml in the patches.
