+
+```shell
+hudi->help kerberos kinit
+NAME
+       kerberos kinit - Perform Kerberos authentication
+
+SYNOPSIS
+       kerberos kinit --krb5conf String [--principal String] [--keytab String]
+
+OPTIONS
+       --krb5conf String
+       Path to krb5.conf
+       [Optional, default = /etc/krb5.conf]
+
+       --principal String
+       Kerberos principal
+       [Mandatory]
+
+       --keytab String
+       Path to keytab
+       [Mandatory]
+```
+
+For example:
+
+```shell
+hudi->kerberos kinit --principal user/host@DOMAIN --keytab /etc/security/keytabs/user.keytab
+Perform Kerberos authentication
+Parameters:
+--krb5conf: /etc/krb5.conf
+--principal: user/host@DOMAIN

+Kerberos current user: user/host@DOMAIN (auth:KERBEROS)
