Hi Steve, Since this is not relevant to the Apache Hadoop HDFS user lists, I'm moving it to the SCM-users list which relates to Cloudera Manager usage. Also find my response inline.

You may be missing the step at https://ccp.cloudera.com/display/express37/Generating+Client+Configuration which is required for all clients you want to allow access to the cluster. You can place this at /etc/hadoop/conf and that should work. > How do I modify the hdfs-site.xml ?

Do not modify the configs managed by CM, they are for daemons/services alone; Whereas a generated set of configs are a subset of only necessary configs required by clients. -- Harsh J Customer Ops.
