Xiao Chen commented on HDFS-9804:
---------------------------------
Thanks for the comment [~cnauroth]. I didn't know we have {{hdfs --daemon}}.
Just make sure we're on the same page, we would need to pass in the keytab file
to the Balancer, and do something similar to {{SecurityUtil.login}}, right?
> Allow long-running Balancer in Kerberized Environments

> From the discussion of HDFS-9698, it might be nice to allow the balancer to
> run as a daemon and login from a keytab.
