> We have {{hdfs groups}} command to troubleshoot issues related to users' 
> group member look up with Unix/LDAP. However, there are some limitation of 
> this command: 1) it can only be executed when namenode is running. 2) any 
> change in the group mapping lookup configuration needs a hdfs namenode 
> restart, which is expensive. 
> This ticket is proposed to have a simple CLI utility like HadoopKerberosName
> {code}
> hadoop org.apache.hadoop.security.HadoopKerberosName 
> nn/[email protected]
> {code}
> The CLI utility for group member lookup will have a usage like below without 
> namenode running or restart for configuration change.
> {code}
> hadoop org.apache.hadoop.security.Groups hdfs
> hdfs : [hadoop, hdfs]
> {code}
