Chris Nauroth commented on HDFS-9804:
-------------------------------------
The "run as a daemon" piece is supported by the shell script rewrite in trunk,
i.e. {{hdfs --daemon start balancer}}. Supporting login from a keytab would
require code changes though.
> Allow long-running Balancer in Kerberized Environments
