Problem Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When keytab authentication is enabled, the engine launch command line does not include necessary security parameters. This can lead to authentication failures or security vulnerabilities in Kerberos-enabled environments.

Description

A short description of your feature

Add support for keytab authentication environments by enhancing the engine launch command line with additional security parameters. This ensures proper Kerberos ticket handling and secure authentication when keytab is enabled.

Use case

Describe the use case of your feature request and the solution you'd like.

This feature is essential for deployments using Kerberos authentication with keytab files. The enhanced command line parameters will:

  • Enable proper keytab file specification
  • Add security-related JVM parameters
  • Ensure secure ticket acquisition and renewal

Solutions

Describe alternatives you've considered.

  • Configure security parameters in static configuration files (rejected: lacks flexibility)
  • Add parameters programmatically during engine startup (accepted: more flexible and secure)

Anything else

Additional context or screenshots about the feature request.

The implementation involves updating EnvConfiguration and JavaProcessEngineConnLaunchBuilder to support additional command line parameters when keytab is detected.
