Aaron T. Myers updated HADOOP-9283:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-9283.patch
Here's a patch which adds support for running the Hadoop client on AIX by
conditionally loading the appropriate user/security classes when running on
AIX, and by conditionally setting up the JAAS configuration appropriately when
using IBM Java.
No tests are included since an AIX environment would be required to do so
properly. I tested this patch manually by running the HDFS daemons in a
standard Linux environment and accessing the file system using a Hadoop client
running on an AIX box. I tested both with and without security enabled, and
both scenarios worked as expected. I also manually tested both ticket cache and
keytab-based logins, and both of those worked as expected as well.
