Hi All, I want to add a user who can create/remove and perform all the operations on hdfs.
Here is what I tried: 1. Create user: adduser admin 2. /usr/sbin/usermod -a -G hdfs admin And when I try to create a directory on hdfs under "/" it raises error as follows, [root@vmkdev0021 ~]# id admin uid=500(admin) gid=500(admin) groups=500(admin),498(hdfs) [root@vmkdev0021 ~]# su admin [admin@vmkdev0021 root]$ hadoop fs -mkdir /input mkdir: Permission denied: user=admin, access=WRITE, inode="/":hdfs:hdfs:drwxr-xr-x Please let me know how can I overcome this, this is reallly bugging me.
