Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-4491: ----------------------------------- Here's an overview of the problem(with most of the input from [~sreekanth]): *Objective*: - Setup secure permissions for task files and job files. Secure permissions means permission only to the user running the job (700). *Problems to solve*: With HADOOP-4490, framework is in place to run the user's process as the user himself/herself. To continue to run jobs successfully, HADOOP-4490 set permissions of all files to 777. The scope of this issue is o set secure permissions for these files. After setting these, - we should be able to run jobs successfully as a user different from the TaskTracker user, - all the files the user owns have to be set 700 permissions, - TT should continue to be able to serve map intermediate outputs to reduces and serve user-logs via TaskLogServlet. *Issues involved:* - handling localization for tasks. - handling intermediate output files. - handling intermediate output serving. > Per-job local data on the TaskTracker node should have right access-control > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4491 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4491 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: mapred, security > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
