Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-846:
-----------------------------------------

A thought (in a form of Bruno pinging me ;-)) has just occurred to me: wouldn't 
it be better for each component to advertise how exactly it need to initialize 
the HDFS via a json/xml/txt file dropped into a predetermined location 
describing exactly what needs to happen. We can them have a very generic script 
that simply operates on that.
                
> The helper script introduced in BIGTOP-547 doesn't create /user/$USER 
> directories on HDFS

> For BIGTOP-547, I had done my testing where I running the MR job as root. 
> However, the helper script creates home directory for hard-coded set of users 
> (root, jenkins, etc.) but not for other users. In particular, it doesn't 
> create a directory for the user who is running the command.
> It should do that too (safely, in case the user is root).
