Hello -

Is it possible to create a rule or policy to lock out user accounts after N number of failed login attempts?

thanks...

Hello,

There is no lockout feature in Cloudera Manager.

If you are using SAML or LDAP, you can leverage their lockout features.

There is an internal Cloudera Jira requesting the feature. I'll update it with your interest.

Thanks,

Ben

Thanks Ben. Good to know that there is a Jira for this too.
