How to configure Elastic hdfs repository so it could work with Hadoop in HA mode? I saw there is some work was done about this here: [https://risdenk.github.io/2017/12/23/elasticsearch-hdfs-snapshot-repository-java-security-manager-kerberos.html](https://risdenk.github.io/2017/12/23/elasticsearch-hdfs-snapshot-repository-java-security-manager-kerberos.html)

But I can't find any example on how to use this.

P.S. basically same question as [Elasticsearch 5.1 HDFS HA snapshot repository](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elasticsearch-5-1-hdfs-ha-snapshot-repository/83705)

HA support was added by [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/27196](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/27196)

I could not find any docs, but you could look at the integration tests here to see how we've set this up in our tests: [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/master/plugins/repository-hdfs/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/repositories/hdfs/HaHdfsFailoverTestSuiteIT.java#L111-L122](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/master/plugins/repository-hdfs/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/repositories/hdfs/HaHdfsFailoverTestSuiteIT.java#L111-L122)
