KWON BYUNGCHANG created HDFS-17926:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Automatically create home directory for users
Key: HDFS-17926
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-17926
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: namenode
Reporter: KWON BYUNGCHANG
Currently, HDFS does not automatically create a user's home directory (e.g.,
`/user/<user>`). This requires administrators to manually create home
directories, which adds operational overhead and can cause failures for
user-facing tools (e.g., MapReduce job submission, Hive, Spark) that assume the
home directory exists.
This JIRA tracks the development of automatic home directory creation so that
when a user's home directory does not yet exist, HDFS creates it automatically
with appropriate ownership (`<username>:<supergroup>`) and permissions
(`drwx------`).
**Motivation:**
- Reduces administrative burden for large multi-tenant clusters
- Prevents job failures caused by missing home directories
- Aligns with the behavior expected by higher-level ecosystem tools
