--------------------------------------------------

  
  We can define multiple definitions for the same grid.  This is important when 
you consider that small-medium sized grids are likely to have a mix of nodes.  
For example, some nodes may have 8 cores with four disks and some nodes may 
have 6 cores with eight disks.  If they are part of the same cluster, they will 
need different mapred-site.xml settings in order to maximize the hardware 
purchase.

+ From the client side, this is a huge win.  We can do things like:
+ 
+ {{{
+ $ hadoop listgrids
+ }}}
+ 
+ In LDAP terms, this would be fetching the (objectclass=hadoopGlobalConfig) 
and reporting all clusternames.  We could also do:
+ 
+ {{{
+ $ hadoop distcp red:/my/dir  green:/my/dir
+ }}}
+ 
+ With distcp able to get the necessary grid config from LDAP with no (real) 
local config necessary.
