Hello @Rishi,

If you are using Ambari, then there is no direct way to enable/disable Kerberos for specific component. You can disable Kerberos from component specific configuration change but think about what would happen when a non-Kerberized service wants to talk to a Kerberized service or vice versa.

Wondering what is the use case here? Do let us know.

Hope this helps !

Would like to disable Kerberos security for Kafka but not for NIFI, any good documentation available to help?
