Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-13310:
----------------------------------------
[[email protected]], I'm not immediately working on this. I expect it's
straightforward to code and test something like the WASB approach: populate
group from a configuration property with a hard-coded default. If someone else
wants to pick it up, that would be fine. Otherwise, it's probably at least a
week or two before I'd pick it up.
> S3A reporting of file group as empty is harmful to compatibility for the
> shell.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13310
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: fs/s3
> Reporter: Chris Nauroth
> Priority: Minor
>
> S3A does not persist group information in file metadata. Instead, it stubs
> the value of the group to an empty string. Although the JavaDocs for
> {{FileStatus#getGroup}} indicate that empty string is a possible return
> value, this is likely to cause compatibility problems. Most notably, shell
> scripts that expect to be able to perform positional parsing on the output of
> things like {{hadoop fs -ls}} will stop working if retargeted from HDFS to
> S3A.
