Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-9902:
------------------------------------------
That's very helpful! (Especially since that was going to be the next place I
looked since I just happen to have it cloned from git on my dev machine....
it's going to be one of the first big tests I do as I work towards a
commit-able patch. :D )
Bigtop looks like it is doing what I would expect: setting it for Hadoop, but
not using it directly. Which seems to indicate that, at least as far as Bigtop
is concerned, we could expand the definition beyond "it must be a user".
Hadoop also uses HADOOP_IDENT_STR as the setting for the Java hadoop.id.str
property. But I can't find a single place where this property is used. IIRC,
it was used in ancient times for logging and/or display, but if we don't need
the property set anymore because we've gotten wiser, I'd like to just yank that
property completely.
