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

             Summary: ShellBasedUnixGroupMapping should support group names 
with space
                 Key: HADOOP-12505
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12505
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang
            Assignee: Wei-Chiu Chuang


In a typical configuration, group name is obtained from AD through SSSD/LDAP. 
AD permits group names with space (e.g. "Domain Users").
Unfortunately, the present implementation of ShellBasedUnixGroupMapping parses 
the output of shell command "id -Gn", and assumes group names are separated by 
space.
This could be achieved by using a combination of shell scripts, for example,
bash -c 'id -G weichiu | tr " " "\n" | xargs -I % getent group "%" | cut -d":" 
-f1'
But I am still looking for a more compact form, and potentially more efficient 
one.
