Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-2230: ------------------------------------------------ Is root the only administrator? Or do we need a special admin group, so that every user in the admin group is a administrator? > Post users: need admin-only access to HDFS > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2230 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2230 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Environment: All > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > > When user support gets added to HDFS, administrators are going to need to be > able to set the namenode such that it only allows connections/interactions > from the administrative user. This is particularly important after upgrades > and for other administrative work that may require the changing of user/group > ownership, permissions, location of files within the HDFS, etc. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
